21. A study of wood adhesion and interactions using DMTA
Sammanfattning : The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to investigate whether the adhesion of glues and lacquers to wood could be studied using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). This method has been widely used to study interactions in polymer blends, copolymers and in polymeric composites but very few investigations had been done on solid wood. LÄS MER
22. Colour changes and acid formation in wood during heating
Sammanfattning : Heating wood has since ancient times been a method to dry and modify its properties. Nowadays heat is used in industrial processes for the same reasons. Treatment at temperatures above 150ºC can change the colour, improve resistance to biodegradation and enhance dimensional stability. LÄS MER
23. Real-time breath gas analysis of carbon monoxide : laser-based detection and pulmonary gas exchange modeling
Sammanfattning : Breath gas analysis is a promising approach for non-invasive medical diagnostics and physiological monitoring. Real-time, breath-cycle resolved biomarker detection facilitates data interpretation and has the potential to improve the diagnostic value of breath tests as exhalation profiles carry spatiotemporal information about biomarker origin and gas exchange in the respiratory tract.

24. Strength and colour response of solid wood to heat treatment
Sammanfattning : Heat treatment is a method for improving the durability and dimensional stability of wood. The treatment method used in this work is called Thermo Wood and is industrially applied in Finland. In 2004 production was 31146 m3. The method involves heating wood in a steam atmosphere where the heat causes chemical changes in the structure of the wood. LÄS MER
25. Controlling microwave heating and its effect on the properties of wood
Sammanfattning : Drying wood with microwave energy is not so common, but could be a complement to conventional air circulation drying due to the possibility of drying wood faster than with conventional drying methods with preserved quality. An industrial-scale, on-line microwave drier for wood components is under development at the Division of Wood Physics. LÄS MER
