The typical strength of wood make it suitable as a structural material. Under load, natural
wood exhibits a small strain within the elastic range. Such elasticity is associated with fast …

This study proposed a new method for the rapid and uniform removal of lignin components
from wood, which was applied to abundant fast-growing Chinese fir. Based on the lignin …

Fir wood is widely used in construction, however its thermal degradability and flammability
pose significant challenges to its safe use. In this work, we used a new carbonaceous …

Direct functionalization of structural materials can provide an elegant balance between their
structure, performance, and function. However, effective direct functionalization techniques …

Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) measurements of water-saturated earlywood (EW) and
latewood (LW) of various wood species in the temperature range from 0 to 100° C were …

This study investigates lignin's influence on the hygroscopic behavior of poplar wood.
Delignification was achieved using an acidic NaClO 2 solution, and digital image correlation …

The resin impregnation treatment of wood is used as a pretreatment to improve the
deformability of wood and the durability of its formed products. The objective of this study …

To evaluate delignification as a pre-treatment for manufacturing processes, the chemical
structure and composition of constituent polymers of Japanese cypress (Chamaecyparis …

Developing a moisture-stable structural material with high toughness is essential for
improving the stability of packaging and building materials. Wood is a pervasive structural …

Dynamic mechanical analysis and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements of
hinoki wood swollen with water and/or ethanol in the temperature range of 20–78/95° C …
