This paper deals with the impact of heat treatment on the elastic and strength properties of
two diffuse porous hardwoods, namely Fagus sylvatica and Betula pendula. Two degrees of …

The aim of the research was to evaluate the impact of various temperatures of thermal
modification and sanding treatment on the color change of sessile oak, Norway spruce, and …

The surface quality of thermally modified birch wood was examined after plane milling. The
surface quality was assessed based on the arithmetic mean deviation of the assessed …

This paper deals with an analysis of the energy efficiency of the milling of thermally modified
and unmodified beech wood, taking into consideration the angular geometry of the cutting …

The risk of possible ignition and burning is one of the greatest disadvantages of using wood
as a construction material. An environmentally appropriate method of improving the fire …

This paper aimed to define the density fluctuations of thermally modified wood. This was
achieved by the granular analysis of wood dust. The wood dust was acquired by sanding …

This paper deals with splinter size analysis of beech wood, considering the angular tool of
the cutter and also the physical and mechanical wood properties substantially influencing …

Many architects choose wooden façades to clad modern buildings, and Thermowood® is a
popular choice for such applications. This study focuses on methods to prolong the “fresh” …

This paper reports on the dependence of screw direct withdrawal load resistance on thermal
modification of spruce wood. Screw direct withdrawal load resistance was measured in …

This work examines the effect of thermal modification temperature (180, 200, and 220° C) in
comparison with reference (untreated) samples on selected optical properties of six tropical …
