MICROSTRUCTURAL AND PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF HEAT TREATED WOOD: PART 2. HARDWOODS
Heat treatment of wood is an effective method to improve the dimensional stability and durability against biodegradation. Optimisation of a two-stage heat treatment process at relatively mild conditions (<200°C) and its effect on the anatomical structure of hardwoods were investigated by means of...
