Control of wood thermal treatment and its effects on decay resistance: a review (2016, positive): “mass loss (Bekhta and Niemz 2003; Esteves et al. 2008) and also the thermal process used.”
Study of the degradation behavior of heat-treated jack pine (Pinus banksiana) under artificial sunlight irradiation (2012, background): “The decrease in lightness and the increase in the color difference of heattreated wood were caused by a decrease in hemicelluloses content, especially pentosan [42].”
Influence of steam heating on the properties of pine (Pinus pinaster) and eucalypt (Eucalyptus globulus) wood (2007, background): “2006) and improves its dimensional stability (Kollmann and Schneider 1963; Viitaniemi et al. 1997; Epmeier et al. 2001; Yildiz 2002; Bekhta and Niemz 2003; González-Peña et al. 2004; Wang and Cooper 2005) and rot resistance (Kim et al.”
Evaluation of heat-treated wood swelling by differential scanning calorimetry in relation to chemical composition (2005, background): “Heat treatments of wood are widely used for protecting wood against fungal attack and for the reduction of wood swelling (Kamden et al. 2002; Mouras et al. 2002; Niemz and Bekhta 2003 ).”
Colour in thermally modified wood of beech, Norway spruce and Scots pine. Part 1: Colour evolution and colour changes (2009, background): “After reaching a maximum, both a* and b* declined with longer exposure; this also agrees with previous studies (Bekhta and Niemz 2003; Brischke et al. 2007).”
Effect of Heat Treatment on Color Changes, Dimensional Stability, and Mechanical Properties of Wood (2012, result): “Similar reduction has been reported by other workers in different species.[4,6,8]”
Thermo-hydro and thermo-hydro-mechanical wood processing: An opportunity for future environmentally friendly wood products (2013, background): “The modification also leads to colour changes (Bekhta and Niemz 2003) and the development of an intense odour (Peters et al. 2008).”
Chemical changes of heat treated pine and eucalypt wood monitored by FTIR (2013, background): “…increase its dimensional stability (Viitaniemi et al. 1997, Yildiz 2002, Wang and Cooper 2005, Esteves et al. 2007a, Esteves et al. 2007b), and increase its durability (Dirol and Guyonnet 1993, Kamdem et al. 2002) and its darkness (Mitsui et al. 2001, Bekhta and Niemz 2003, Esteves et al. 2008c).”
Heat-induced colour changes of pine (Pinus pinaster) and eucalypt (Eucalyptus globulus) wood (2008, background): “Heat treatment reduces the equilibrium moisture content of wood and improves its dimensional stability and durability but it may reduce the mechanical resistance, mainly of bending (Kollmann and Schneider 1963; Viitanen et al. 1994; Viitaniemi et al. 1997; Kim et al. 1998; Kubojima et al. 2000; Epme”
Determination of formic-acid and acetic acid concentrations formed during hydrothermal treatment of birch wood and its relation to colour, strength and hardness (2006, background): “It has also been suggested that the colour of wood can serve as an indicator of the degree of its modification (Bourgois et al. 1991; Bekhta and Niemz 2003).”
Transparent magnetic wood composites based on immobilizing Fe3O4 nanoparticles into a delignified wood template (2017, background): “5 MPa, due to the hierarchical structure and the strong interactions among cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin [37].”
Quality control of thermally modified timber: Interrelationship between heat treatment intensities and CIE L*a*b* color data on homogenized wood samples (2007, background): “Furthermore, Bekhta and Niemz (2003), Patzelt et al. (2003), and Sundqvist (2004) showed that higher initial wood moisture content leads to stronger darkening during heat treatment.”
Violet light causes photodegradation of wood beyond the zone affected by ultraviolet radiation (2007, methodology): “standard observer and D65 illuminant) (Bekhta and Niemz 2003).”
