Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic resonance studies of thermally modified wood
TL;DR: In this paper, changes in the chemical structure of pine (Pinus sylvestris) caused by thermal treatment were investigated by studying various components of wood using 13 C CPMAS NMR spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal Modifications in Softwood Studied by FT‐IR and UV Resonance Raman Spectroscopies
TL;DR: In this article, the UVRR and FT-IR spectra of acetone extracts showed that lignin became partly acetone soluble after a heat treatment of 180°C or greater.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of a heat treatment on the behaviour of extractives in softwood studied by FTIR spectroscopic methods
TL;DR: In this article, a typical absorption band of fats and waxes at 1740 cm-1 was detected on the sapwood edges in the temperature range of 100-160o C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat‐treated softwood exposed to weathering

TL;DR: In this article, weathered and unweathered samples were examined with FTIR, UV resonance Raman, and 13C CPMAS NMR spectroscopies and the results indicated that heat-treated wood is more resistant to natural weathering than untreated wood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long‐term natural weathering of coated ThermoWood
TL;DR: In this paper, pine and spruce boards were heat treated at 225°C for six hours under steam, in order to achieve dimensional stability and durability of wood substrate, and the panels were coated surface finishes which are commonly used on exterior cladding, joinery and fences in Finland.
