Deacidification refers to chemical treatments meant to slow down the acid hydrolysis and
embrittlement of books and paper documents that had been printed on acidic paper. From …

Paper degradation has been studied extensively over the past few decades from both the
conservation and the material science perspectives. This review focuses on the quantifiable …

The water vapour sorption behaviour of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Scots pine that
was densified, thermally-modified, or subjected to a combination of thermal modification and …

The water vapour sorption isotherms and sorption kinetics of birch (Betula pendula L)
acetylated to different levels have been determined using a dynamic vapour sorption (DVS) …

Sorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a
material and the ambient relative humidity. Most materials exhibits sorption hysteresis, that …

Hygroscopic behavior is an inherent characteristic of nanocellulose which strongly affects its
applications. In this study, the water vapor sorption behavior of four nanocellulose samples …

Hygroscopic behavior is an inherent characteristic of bamboo that strongly affects its
mechanical properties, durability, and dimensional stability. In order to understand the …

Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) measurements are widely used to collect water vapor
sorption isotherms for wood and other cellulosic materials. Equilibrium moisture content …

Recently, the dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) technique has been used to measure sorption
isotherms and develop moisture-mechanics models for wood and cellulosic materials. This …

Cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin in wood have completely different structures and
hygroscopicity, which markedly impact the wood moisture adsorption properties. The …
