Accelerated and natural weathering performance of impregnated wood samples
(International Conference on Agriculture, Food, Veterinary and Pharmacy Sciences, 2017-05-15)
Numerous chemicals are currently applied for wood protection against weathering. However, most of these chemicals cannot provide a long-term protection on wooden surface. Therefore, water repellent materials are needed to ...
Effects of nano-zinc oxide based paint on weathering performance of coated wood
(Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, 2014-09-20)
Nano-sized zinc oxide (ZnO) was chosen as a suitable candidate for the UV-protection of coatings. The accelerated weathering performances of Scots pine coated with wood paint mixed with nano- ZnO were investigated. Uncoated ...
Water repellent efficiency of wood treated with copper-azole combined with silicone and paraffin emulsions
(2013-01-20)
Copper-azole free of chromium and arsenic is one of the potential wood preservatives against wood decay organisms being on the market as an alternative to CCA (copper, chrome, arsenic). In this study, copper-azole solution ...
Effect of tall oil pretreatment on physical and mechanical properties of heat treated fir and beech
(27th International Conference on Wood Modification and Tehnology, 2016-12-07)
Thermal treatment is an environmentally friendly process and effective to improve biological resistance as well as enhance dimensional stability of wood material. However, the mechanical properties of the wood are decreased ...
