The paper presents the results obtained in the study of new archaeometric and chemometric characteristics for old linden wood (Tillia cordata Mill.) and poplar wood (Populus robusta), put into work. Therefore, based on elemental chemical composition data, humidity, pH, ash and those related to wood extraction components, which are characteristics with low arteriometric potential, the chemometric characteristics with an archeometric value were evaluated. Samples used in this study, both linden and poplar wood, the following near-linear ratios were observed in the next reports: C/O, (C+H)/O, (C+H)/Norganic, pH/Humidity, Nmineral/Ash, extract in NaOH/extract in hot water and extract in ethyl alcohol/extract in ether, which can be used in establishing an archaeometric reference.

Biogeosciences and Forestry Biogeosciences and Forestry Study on the chemical composition of teak wood extracts in different organic solventsDumitru Eugen Colbu (1) , Ion Sandu (2-3-4) , Viorica Vasilache (2) , Kamel Earar (5) , Elena Daniela Paraschiv (6) , Ioan Gabriel Sandu (7) , Diana Bulgaru Iliescu (6) , Andrei Victor Sandu (7)(8) Teak wood (Tectona grandis Linn F.) is known for its high natural resistance to attack by microorganisms. For this reason, teak wood is used for restoration works. This paper provides an assessment of the extraction capacity of various organic solvents and the chemical and physical-structural characteristics of extracts of teak wood with an age of 40 years. On the basis of literature data, we selected the solvents with potential synergetic activity in preservation treatments. For this purpose we used the SEM-EDX and GC+MS methods, assisted by computerized processing software, and corroborated the data obtained from these two instrumental techniques.
