Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the treatment of solid wood wherein the process comprises the step of: impregnating wood with a solution comprising citric acid and curing the impregnated wood at a temperature of between 150-220°C. The invention further relates to wood treated according to the process.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method for manufacturing a drylaid mat suitable for thermoforming. The present invention is directed to a dry forming process, wherein cellulosic or lignocellulosic fibers have been impregnated, but not cross linked, with a cross linking agent prior to forming in a dry forming method. The invention is also directed to dry-laid mats manufactured according to the method as well as to thermoformed products manufactured from such dry-laid mats.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing at least one ply of a paper or paperboard product which process comprises the steps of; subjecting cellulosic fibers to heat treatment wherein the fibers are treated at a high dry content and at an increased temperature, preparing a slurry comprising said heat treated fibers, forming a web of said slurry and, dewatering said web whereby a ply of said product is formed. The present invention further relates to a paper or paperboard product produced according to the process.
Abstract:
The invention concerns an extruded composite containing wood fibre material and polymer. The wood fibre material is wood material where the knot or branch content is at least 10 w-%, or bark, or would material into which extract material obtained by extracting knots, branches or bark has been absorbed. The amount of the polymer is 5-25 % from the weight of the composite. The composite has high hardness, and reduced moisture absorption and swelling properties. It can be used as constructional material.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing laminated veneer lumber treated with microfibrillated cellulose. The invention also relates to a modified laminated veneer lumber product produced using said process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a modified wood product wherein the wood is treated with low-molecular weight resin based on lignin degradation products. The present invention also relates to a modified wood product produced using said process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composite product comprising a thermally modified solid wood component coated with a layer of a composite material which composite material comprises thermally modified cellulosic material and a polymer. The invention also relates to a process for producing said composite product.
