• Influence of torrefaction on the grindability and reactivity of woody biomass (2008, background): “Additionally, torrefied biomass has a hydrophobic nature, so that no moisture is acquired during the storage of the product making fungal degradation unlikely (Hakkou et al., 2006).”
• Influence of steam heating on the properties of pine (Pinus pinaster) and eucalypt (Eucalyptus globulus) wood (2007, background): “…et al. 2001; Yildiz 2002; Bekhta and Niemz 2003; González-Peña et al. 2004; Wang and Cooper 2005) and rot resistance (Kim et al. 1998; Kamdem et al. 2002; Hakkou et al. 2006), thereby allowing treated wood to be used in less favourable conditions and to compete with tropical woods of higher cost.”
• Wood modification by heat treatment: a review. (2009, background): “Hakkou et al. (2006) reported an important correlation between temperature of treatment and fungal durability, and also that there was insufficient evidence to support the hypothesis of improved decay resistance due to fungicidal compounds or to the hydrophobic character of wood.”
• Heat-induced colour changes of pine (Pinus pinaster) and eucalypt (Eucalyptus globulus) wood (2008, background): “…1998; Kubojima et al. 2000; Epmeier et al. 2001; Jämsä and Viitaniemi 2001; Rapp and Sailer 2001; Kamdem et al. 2002; Yildiz 2002; Bengtsson et al. 2002; Bekhta and Niemz 2003; Gosselink et al. 2004; MetsäKortelainen et al. 2006; Wang and Cooper 2005; Hakkou et al. 2006; Esteves et al. 2007).”
• EFFECTS OF TORREFACTION ON ENERGY PROPERTIES OF Eucalyptus grandis WOOD (2009, background): “…on effects of thermal treatment on the physicochemical properties of wood demonstrated that the heating process prompts degradation of hydrophilic polysaccharides (hemicelluloses), reducing hydroxyl radicals where water molecules would otherwise usually bind (HAKKOU et al. 2006, MBURU et al. 2007).”
• Control of wood thermal treatment and its effects on decay resistance: a review (2016, unknown): “Hakkou et al. (2006) and Chaouch et al. (2013) studies, mainly achieved at laboratory scale, have proven good correlations between mass loss issued from wood thermal degradation (ML%), treatment intensity (time and temperature) and weight loss (WL”
• A review of wood thermal pretreatments to improve wood composite properties (2013, background): “…against fungal degradation, water vapor sorption, and durability are improved in torrefied wood (Jämsä and Viitaniemi 2001; Kamdem et al. 2002; Tjeerdsma and Militz 2005; Hakkou et al. 2006; Borrega and Kärenlampi 2008; Ates et al. 2009; Ibach 2010; Pfriem et al. 2010; Dubey et al. 2012).”
