Effects of Wood on Durability of Finishes
Deterioration of wood is caused by physical (swelling and shrinking) and chemical (sunlight, air, and water) weathering and decay (fungi). Weathering wears away the surface at a rate of about […]

Effects of wood-preservative treatments on mechanical properties of E-glass/phenolic pultruded composite reinforcement for wood
Laminated timbers reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) material were treated with common preservative chemicals including oilborne (organo- and organometallic) and acid- and amine-based waterborne treatments, and the effects on the […]
