Orthotropic Tension Behavior of Two Typical Chinese Plantation Woods at Wide Relative Humidity Range

Abstract: Research Highlights: Orthotropic tension behaviors of poplar and Chinese fir were investigated at a wide relative humidity (RH) range. Background and Objectives: Poplar and Chinese fir are typical plantation tree species in China. Mechanical properties of plantation-grown wood varies from naturally-grown one. To utilize poplar and Chinese fir woods efficiently, fully understanding their moisture content (MC) and orthotropic dependency on tension abilities is necessary. Materials and Methods: Plantation poplar … Show more

“…For instance, the E r and H values of the wood cell walls modified with PF resin at 15% concentration increased by about 24.9% and 47.3%, which further confirmed the results of the Raman measurements that some PF molecules penetrated into the cell wall successfully. The filling of the voids and the cross-linking of -OH groups of the wood polymer with the resins may reinforce the cell wall [39,40]. However, the cell wall mechanics increased slowly and even decreased accompanying the increase in PF resin concentration.…”

“…Due to global climate change, there is an urgent need to find a woody material that can replace wood and thus reduce the deforestation of native trees and the loss of forest resources [ 1 , 2 ]. It is necessary to find alternative woody materials which are low cost, have excellent mechanical properties, and are easy to harvest, versatile, and renewable, to solve the above problem [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. In recent years, bamboo has gained more attention due to its abundance, sustainability, excellent physical properties, and ease of harvest.…”
