Change in Micromechanical Behavior of Surface Densified Wood Cell Walls in Response to Superheated Steam Treatment

The combination of surface densification and superheated steam treatment is an effective method to improve the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of low-density wood. The objective of the current work is to evaluate the effects of superheated steam treatment on the micromechanical behav...
