Comparison on Reduction of VOCs Emissions from Radiata Pine (<i>Pinus Radiata D.</i> Don) between Sodium Bicarbonate and Ozone Treatments

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in wood furniture are an important factor that affects indoor air quality. In this study, radiata pine (<i>Pinus radiata D.</i> Don) was treated with sodium bicarbonate and ozone aqueous solution to reduce the VOC contents without sacrificing mechanical...
