Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of photodegradation of six wood species after short-time UV exposure
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of UV irradiation on different wood species represents an open subject of research, and six species, half softwoods and half hardwoods, were subjected to the action of artificial UV radiation at a constant temperature of 40°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation of accelerated temperature-induced ageing of four wood species: colour and FTIR
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated and compared the behaviour of four wood species, originating from Europe and China, in terms of temperature-induced artificial ageing, using colour measurements in the CIE Lab system and by FTIR analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological resistance of chemically modified aspen composites
TL;DR: Aspen wood (Populus tremula L.) was chemically modified by a two-step procedure consisting of esterification with maleic anhydride (MA) and subsequent oligoesterification of MA and GMA or allyl glycidyl ether (AGE).
Journal ArticleDOI
SEM-EDX, water absorption, and wetting capability studies on evaluation of the influence of nano-zinc oxide as additive to paraloid B72 solutions used for wooden artifacts consolidation.
Ana‐Adriana Tuduce Trǎistaru,Irina Crina Anca Sandu,Maria Cristina Timar,Georgeta Lucia Dumitrescu,Ion Sandu +4 more
TL;DR: Scanning Electron Microscope coupled with an EDX Detector investigation proved vessels, fibers, and interconnecting pits as main pathways of consolidant penetration into the wooden structure as well as the presence and distribution of nano‐ZnO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Color and FTIR Analysis of Chemical Changes in Beech Wood (Fagus sylvatica L.) after Light Steaming and Heat Treatment in Two Different Environments
TL;DR: In this article, color and chemical changes were investigated in beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.) following light steaming and further heat treatment for 2.5 h at 200 °C by two techniques (industrial ThermoWood versus a laboratory procedure in the presence of air).
