Improvement of wood decay resistance by salicylic acid / silica microcapsule: Effects on the salicylic leaching, microscopic structure and decay resistance

Li Yan et al.

Summary: Salicylic acid/silica microcapsules (SSM) are an environmentally friendly wood preservative, and poplar wood impregnated with SSM shows significantly improved decay resistance against fungi. The analysis results of SEM, FTIR, EDX, and XPS indicate the effectiveness of SSM treatment in enhancing the wood's durability.

Thermal modification of wood-a review: chemical changes and hygroscopicity

Callum Hill et al.

Summary: This paper reviews the influence of cell wall moisture content during thermal modification process on the properties of thermally modified timber (TMT). It compares TMT modified under dry and wet conditions, analyzing the role of hydroxyl groups, cell wall polymer mobility, and crosslinking in sorption behavior. The study also raises questions regarding the role of OH groups in sorption behavior based on the changes observed in TMT after water leaching post-treatment.

Physical and Mechanical Properties of Poplar Wood Modified by Glucose-Urea-Melamine Resin/Sodium Silicate Compound

Qiangqiang Liu et al.

Summary: The development of an environmentally friendly wood modifier, MUG resin/sodium silicate compound modifier, significantly improves plantation poplar wood's physical and mechanical properties by reducing shrinkage, enhancing dimensional stability, and increasing density, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, and compression strength. Through an organic-inorganic compound synergistic effect, the modifier effectively enters the wood cell wall, making it a green, non-formaldehyde, low-cost wood modifier with broad application prospects.
