Penetration of Different Liquids in Wood-Based Composites: The Effect of Adsorption Energy

The penetration properties of three different liquids on the surface of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and particleboard panels were studied. Water, as a polar liquid, was compared to two other less polar liquids (namely, ethanol and kerosene) with significantly larger molecules. Measurement of pen...
