Evaluation of Physical and Mechanical Properties of Hygro-thermal Modified Wood

Abstract The present research work has investigated the physical and mechanical properties of hygro-thermally modified poplar (Populus deltoides) wood. The poplar wood blocks were treated hygrothermally at temperatures of 130, 150 and 170°C and for 20, 40 minutes as holding time. The physical and me...
