Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Forest-based industries have been continuously developing advanced processes, materials and wood-based solutions, to meet evolving demands and increase competitiveness. Engineered wood products (EWPs) constitute one emerging group of materials aiming at improved property profiles of wood, and provide desired shapes and functionality. In this paper, the main principles for different processes to soften wood and make it more flexible for bending and moulding, such as longitudinal compression, plasticization by water vapour and gaseous ammonia, and a dielectric heating technique, are discussed. Examples of implementation of these techniques for the production of wooden products are presented, and the use of reed canary grass, and a novel technique for embossment of hybrid particleboards are also further discussed.
