Effect of Seawater with Average Salinity on the Moisture Content, Ash Content and Tensile Strength of Some Coniferous Wood
In this paper, the differences in mechanical strength tested during the static tensile and compression test of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), European larch (Larix decidua) and Norway spruce (Picea abies) wood exposed to continuous soaking in water with a salinity of 7‰ were determined. The value...

description | In this paper, the differences in mechanical strength tested during the static tensile and compression test of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), European larch (Larix decidua) and Norway spruce (Picea abies) wood exposed to continuous soaking in water with a salinity of 7‰ were determined. The value of salinity corresponded to the average salinity on the Polish Baltic coast. This paper also aimed to examine the content of mineral compounds absorbed during four cycles of two weeks each. The essence of the statistical research was to identify the effect of the mineral range compounds and salts depending on the mechanical strength of the wood. Based on the results of the experiments, it can be concluded that the medium used has a specific effect on the wood species’ structure. The effects of soaking on the wood parameters depend obviously on the type of wood. A tensile strength test of pine, as well as the tensile strength other species, was enhanced by incubating it in seawater. A native sample’s initial mean tensile strength was 82.5 MPa, which increased to 94.8 MPa in the last cycle. It was found that the larch wood had the lowest tensile strength difference (9 MPa) of the woods studied in the current study. Four to six weeks of soaking was necessary to notice an increase in tensile strength. |
