- Clearwood of Scots pine, Norway spruce, and birch was subjected to heat treatment while capillary water was kept in the wood. The treatments were performed on initially green wood from 65 °C to 95 °C from 0 to 6 days, followed by drying at 35 °C for 2 days. Color measurements, CIEL*C*h color space, were made on dry planed samples using a photoelectric colorimeter. Treatment time was more important than temperature for birch sapwood regarding the color responses, while time and temperature were of similar importance for pine and spruce. Birch sapwood became much redder and darker compared with pine and spruce. The darkening accelerated generally when treatment temperature exceeded approximately 80 °C. Pine and spruce showed generally similar color responses, untreated and treated, except for pine heartwood untreated, which showed a more saturated color. Pine treated at 65 °C and 80 °C showed red-yellow shift and yellow-red shift for sap- and heartwood respectively, as time elapsed. The color homogeneity was less for birch sapwood than for pine and spruce, and the homogeneity was generally indicated to decrease with increasing treatment temperature.
