Effect of the Brazilian process of thermal modification on the physical properties of Eucalyptus grandis juvenile wood

Abstract: This study is a continuation of a previous study published in this journal, with the aim of evaluating the effect of the Brazilian industrial thermal modification process on some physical properties of Eucalyptus grandis juvenile wood. Flatsawn boards of juvenile wood were tested for four...

Thermally modified Eucalyptus grandis wood became less hygroscopic, more dimensionally stable (tangential and volumetric swelling) and less dense, even at the lowest temperature tested (140 °C), except for radial swelling, which did not differ from untreated wood.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessUniversidad del Bío-BíoMaderas.
