Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical Wood Processing

Klappentext Describing the history and state-of-the-art of the thermo-hydrous manipulation of wood! this book provides either a desk reference or a field manual of wood science. It examines the polymeric components of wood and its multilevel hierarchical structure that confer its unique general-purpose character and faculty for transformation. Exceeding all other material in its capacity to deform under controlled conditions and for a proscribed outcome! wood! under thermo-hydrous conditions! permits a multitude of industrial processes. Discussing the processes at work and the industrial applications! this book is a must for all interested in the manipulation of wood.
