Dimensional stability and water repellent efficiency measurement of chemically modified tropical light hard wood

Chemical modification is an often-followed route to improve physical and mechanical properties of solid wood materials. In this study five kinds of tropical light hardwoods species, namely jelutong (Dyera costulata), terbulan (Endospermum diadenum), batai ( Paraserianthes moluccana), rubberwood (hev...

description Chemical modification is an often-followed route to improve physical and mechanical properties of solid wood materials. In this study five kinds of tropical light hardwoods species, namely jelutong (Dyera costulata), terbulan (Endospermum diadenum), batai ( Paraserianthes moluccana), rubberwood (hevea brasiliensis), and pulai ( Alstonia pneumatophora), were chemically modified with benzene diazonium salt to improve their dimensional stability and water repellent efficiency.
