Effect of vacuum and pressure treatments on the mechanical properties and moisture balance of wood from Pinus sylvestris

Several works have analyzed the alteration in the mechanical strength of wood after the application of protective substances. However, it remains unclear whether the significant differences obtained are caused by the protective substances, the pressure and vacuum conditions used in the treatment, or...
