Accelerated Weathering of Coated and Uncoated Beech Wood Modified with Citric Acid

Chemical modification of wood can minimize wood drawbacks in exterior application, such as moisture absorption, swelling and shrinkage, susceptibility to photodegradation and microbial attack. We modified a beech wood with 7.0 % water solution of citric acid and 6.5 % sodium-hypophosphite monohydrat...
