Physico-mechanical properties of light red meranti (Shorea spp.) and kedondong (Canarium spp.) wood heat treated in convection oven

Physico-mechanical properties of light red meranti and kedondong wood heat treated in a laboratory at 160, 180 and 200 °C for 5, 7 and 9 h were investigated.Weight loss of the treated samples increased along with treatment severity. Heat treatment reduced the hygroscopicity of the wood where reducti...
