Influence of Thermal Modification on Surface Properties and Chemical Composition of Beech Wood (Fagus sylvatica L.)

Thermal modification leads to the degradation of the compounds in wood, thereby changing the chemical composition of wood, which can affect the further wood finishing. In order to determine the effect of thermal modification on wood finishing, it is important to know the properties of its surface. I...
