Effect of static densification of treated paulownia wood on relationship between strength and density

In this paper effect of static densification of treated paulownia on relationship between strength properties and density was investigated. Specimens were steamed at 130 and 170oc and immediately were compressed to 35% and 45% of their original thickness in radial direction. Mechanical properties su...
