We analyzed the effects of heat treatment on the chemical structure of wood from narrow-
leafed Ash (Fraxinus angustifolia), a fast-growing and economically valuable species. We …

Thermally modified wood is being increasingly offered in Europe as an alternative to
preservative-treated timber. The aim of this study is to determine the change of various …

Mangrove forests are essential on the Amazon coast, as local communities widely use their
wood. However, it is still necessary to understand the mechanical properties of wood typical …

This study was aimed at evaluating the effect of thermal modification temperature on the
mechanical properties, dimensional stability, and biological durability of Picea mariana. The …

This study was conducted to investigate some surface properties of wood specimens of heat
treated Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) after weathering such as surface hardness, surface …

The rapid expansion of industry leads to the emission of heavy metals into the environment,
posing a significant global concern presently. The management of heavy metals holds …

The effects of heartwood and sapwood on kraft pulp properties of Pinus nigra JF Arnold. and
Abies bornmuelleriana Mattf. were investigated. The differences in terms of chemical …

The torrefaction is a thermal pre-treatment to improve biomass quality for biofuel
applications. In this study, the effects of a mild torrefaction (T) on eight eucalypt species …

Acacia hybrid trees aged 15 years were harvested and cut into samples consisting of
sapwood and heartwood taken from the bottom, middle and top portions of the tree. The …

The resistance of thermally modified Canadian Pinus banksiana against four wood decaying
fungi was evaluated. Wood samples were treated at different temperatures (190, 200 and …
