Impregnation of railway sleepers - Process optimisation by using an oily wood preservative and a mechanical pre-treatment
(2022-05-31)The use of creosote as a wood preservative has a long history. For more than 170 years wooden railway sleepers are impregnated with creosote. After initially using vacuum pressure processes for impregnation, empty cell ... -
Applikation naturnaher Bindemittel zur Herstellung von Holzfaserdämmstoffen mittels Heißluft-/Heißdampf-Verfahren
(2022-04-07)In times of the Anthropocene, a recently proclaimed epoch of world history, human activity is the main factor influencing biological, geological and atmospheric chang-es on planet Earth. Accordingly, only humans themselves ... -
Influence of intra- and interspecific competition on timber quality of European beech
(2021-01-21)The timber quality of a single tree is considerably influenced by interactions with other individual trees. These competitive effects from neighbouring trees may be regulated through silvicultural treatments. Consequently, ... -
The influence of melamine treatment in combination with thermal modification on the properties and performance of native hardwoods
(2020-04-30)The objective of this study was to improve the properties of native hardwoods and find potential new applications in exposed environments that had previously been unsuitable for most of these species. Certain properties ... -
Dimensionsstabile und pilzresistente Furnierwerkstoffe durch Zellwandmodifizierung mit niedermolekularem Phenol-Formaldehyd
(2019-12-03)The sorption and desorption of water within the cell wall of wood lead to swelling and shrinkage. Severe stresses occur under varying climatic conditions and damage of the wood structure can result, which eventually causes ... -
Strength grading and selected strength properties of European hardwoods
(2019-07-22)Since national standing stocks of hardwoods will be rising in central Europe in the future, it is the declared political will to introduce these resources to a higher extent into the building sector. That is why since the ... -
Vergleich dielektrisch behinderter Entladungen bezüglich der physikalischen Eigenschaften und der Wirkung auf Holz und Holzwerkstoffe
(2019-01-09)There are mainly three discharge types known for the treatment of wood and wooden materials with atmosphere pressure plasmas. These differ significantly in their range of applications. The coplanar surface barrier discharge ... -
Protective Particle Coatings applied by Cold Plasma Spraying
(2018-03-07)In this thesis, two different types of particle coatings deposited by cold plasma spraying on wood and glass substrates were investigated in an attempt to achieve protection of wood or other surfaces, particularly in outdoor ... -
Untersuchungen zur Dauerhaftigkeit von kunstharz-modifiziertem Holz bei Verwendung in Meerwasserkontakt
(2018-01-23)This thesis investigates the durability of resin-modified wood in marine contact. For this purpose, it examines the influence of process conditions on resin distribution in the modified wood and it explores the possibility ... -
Evaluation of particle and fibre degradation during processing of wood plastic composites (WPC) using dynamic image analysis
(2016-08-15)This work was performed within the scope of the DFG Research Training Group 1703 “Resource Efficiency in Interorganizational Networks – Planning Methods to Utilize Renewable Resources”. The aim of this work was to investigate ... -
Treatment of solid wood with silanes, polydimethylsiloxanes and silica sols
(2014-11-25)The study can be divided into three sections. In the first section, wood was treated with different commercially available silica sols of varying pH and surface modification. While alkaline silica sols could not be impregnated ... -
Technological improvement of Portuguese Pine wood by modification
(2013-09-04)Wood has a long tradition as a structural and building material in Portugal. In the last decade, the European trend to improve physical properties of wood by chemical modification allowed extending its performance on ... -
Permeability improvement of Norway spruce wood with the white rot fungus Physisporinus vitreus
(2011-02-15)As solid wood, Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) is used in a wide range of applications for interior and exterior situations. Due to its low natural durability against wood decay ... -
Extracellular proteins from lignocellulose degrading Basidiomycetes: Redox enzymes from Trametes versicolor and Coprinopsis cinerea
(2007-02-05)The extracellular proteome of fungi consists of three different fractions: proteins secreted freely into the medium, the hyphal sheath proteins, and cell wall-associated proteins. Methods for isolation and characterization ... -
Wood Quality, Carbon and Nitrogen Partitioning, and Gene Expression Profiling in <i>Populus</i> Exposed to Free Air CO<sub>2</sub> Enrichment (FACE) and N-fertilization
(2006-02-14)Atmospheric CO2 concentrations ([CO2]) are continuously rising since the beginning of the industrialization. At the same time, N-deposition is also increasing. The influences of ... -
Biological attack of acetylated wood
(2003-08-06)Acetylation is an environmental friendly method to modify wood properties and protect it against biological attack. Many researches have been done in this field. However, no concern was ...
