Investigation on the mechanical and decay resistance properties of wood modified with maleic anhydride and methyl metacrylate

This research was conducted to investigate the effect of modification with maleic anhydride and methyl methacrylate on mechanical properties and decay resistance of poplar wood. Samples of mechanical and biological resistance tests were prepared according to ASTM D143-94 and EN113 standards. Treatme...
