Thermo-mechanical densification of wood is performed to improve physical and mechanical
properties of wood. During this treatment aesthetic properties of wood, including gloss, also …

One of the most important properties of the surface of wood-based panels is their roughness.
This property determines the way of working with the material in the processes of gluing and …

The effect of short-term thermomechanical densification of veneer on the surface roughness
and surface anatomical changes in four wood species–alder (Alnus glutinosa Gaertn.) …

The objective of the study is to investigate the influence of heat treatment on shrinkage,
density, surface roughness, water absorption, diffusion coefficient, swelling and shear …

Fast growing sengon (Paraserianthes moluccana) is largely rotary-cut to produce veneer for
core plywood production. In order to provide better information on veneer production and …

The surface roughness constitutes one of the most critical properties of wood and wood
veneers for their extended utilization, affecting the bonding ability of the veneers with one …

Plantation-grown wood species are becoming more important. Their anatomical, physical,
and mechanical properties are different and generally more variable than wood grown in …

Rubber forest plantation (RFP) in Malaysia was currently governed by small holders who
provided lower diameter logs as they managed plantation using higher planting density …

An ideal veneer surface is crucial for good panel properties in plywood manufacturing. The
aim of this study was to compare plasma treatments and sanding (mechanical) processes …

In this study, the surface quality of birch wood (Betula) test pieces planned with experimental
planning tools (ET1, ET2) and influence of tool wear of quality of surface were examined …
