Natural weathering performance of three fast-growing Eucalypt woods
We investigated the effect of outdoor exposure on the wood surface from three fast - growing Brazilian eucalypts through color, wetting and thermal analyzes. Gympie messmate (Eucalyptus cloeziana), rose gum (Eucalyptus grandis) and blue gum (Eucalyptus saligna) woods were exposed outdoors in a subtr...
