파라핀 왁스 처리 목재의 조직 내 왁스 분포 상태

Abstract

After paraffin wax treatment with different wood species and treatment methods, the differences in the weight percent gain density and wax distribution of treated wood were investigated, and the following conclusions were obtained. Paraffin wax penetrates low-density wood better than high-density wood, and thus the weight and density of treated wood are greatly increased. The lumen of the cells of the wood treated with the heat replacement method in which the water in the wood is replaced with paraffin wax is filled with wax, which greatly affects the weight and density increase of the treated wood. After pressure treatment with paraffin wax, the decompressed wood leaves no wax in the cell lumen. It shows a thin coating pattern only on the cell lumen wall. Accordingly, the increase in weight and density is small compared to heat replacement treated wood.
