In Situ Construction of Thermotropic Shape Memory Polymer in Wood for Enhancing Its Dimensional Stability

In Situ Construction of Thermotropic Shape Memory Polymer in Wood for Enhancing Its Dimensional Stability

The extension of wood to a wider field has been restrained significantly due to its dimensional instability that arises from variation in moisture content, which in turn brings about the risk of cracking, warping or distortion. This work proposed a novel strategy to stabilize wood by means of the in...
