COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE 35ºC SORPTION ISOTHERMS OF CORK STRIPPED FROM THE TREE IN 1968 AND 2006

A study was made of the hygroscopicity of two samples of cork with the same characteristics, taken from trees of the same age but with a 38-year gap between debarking. This was achieved by plotting the 35ºC sorption-desorption isotherms and fitting them using the GAB model. Infrared spectra were use...
