Biological durability of wood modified by citric acid
This paper presents the results of measurement of durability of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica) modified by Citric Acid (CA) against brown rot fungus Poria placenta according to EN 113. Modification was performedby impregnation with 7.0% CA and 6.5% sodium-hypophosphite (SHP) water solution and 10-hour...
