Effect of Heat Treatment on Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC) of Some Wood Species in Turkey
Heat treatment is often used for improve the dimensional stability of wood. In this study, effect of heat treatment on equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of oak (Quercus petraea Lieb.), chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.), calabrian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) and black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold.) woods, obtained from Kastamonu Forest Enterprises of Turkey, was examined. Wood specimens were subjected ...
متن کاملInfluence of environmental storage relative humidity on biological indicator resistance, viability, and moisture content.
The effect of environmental storage relative humidity (RH) on the moisture content, viability, and moist heat and gaseous ethylene oxide (EO) resistance of biological indicators (BIs) was evaluated. No statistically significant difference was observed between the initial Bacillus stearothermophilus spore population and the spore population of BIs stored at 20 degrees C and 0, 20, 44, of 55% RH ...
متن کاملEffect of relative humidity and temperature on moisture sorption and stability of sodium bicarbonate powder
The effects of relative humidity and temperature on moisture sorption rate and stability profile of sodium bicarbonate powder exposed to various storage conditions were investigated using gravimetrical and acid-titration methods. In the study, samples were placed in desiccators, which contained various saturated salt solutions to generate desired levels of relative humidity, denoted as RH, rang...
متن کاملEffect of Drying Temperature and Relative Humidity on Contraction Stress in Wood
As wood shrinks during the drying process, various stresses may develop and cause surface and internal checking. The aim of this study was to systematically investigate the effect of the drying temperature, relative humidity, and specimen thickness on the contraction stress in elm wood (Ulmus pumila L.) specimens during drying. The contraction stress was used as an indirect indicator of drying ...
