MEASUREMENT OF DYNAMIC SORPTION BEHAVIOUR OF SMALL SPECIMENS OF PINUS RADIATA - INFLUENCE OF WOOD TYPE AND MOISTURE CONTENT ON DIFFUSION RATE

Sorption behaviour of radiata pine has been investigated by weighing small specimens continuously during isothermal step changes in relative humidity. The use of wood specimens shorter in the longitudinal direction than the average tracheid length of radiata pine ensures that all tracheids in a spec...
