The Effects of Seawater Treatment on Selected Coniferous Wood Types

The mechanical strength of wood from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), European larch (Larix decidua), and Norway spruce (Picea abies) was studied using static compression tests. The material was exposed under constant soaking in water with salinity of 7‰. The liquid mix was prepared according to a val...

description The mechanical strength of wood from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), European larch (Larix decidua), and Norway spruce (Picea abies) was studied using static compression tests. The material was exposed under constant soaking in water with salinity of 7‰. The liquid mix was prepared according to a value roughly equivalent to the average salinity along the entire length of the Baltic Sea. The mechanical strength and quality of the raw material were determined using a sea salt saturation test, which determined the adhesion of the raw material to the extrusion process (permissible stress). An investigation was conducted to determine the physicochemical parameters of the material that was tested. It was investigated how much mineral compounds were absorbed over four cycles lasting a total of six weeks during the test. According to the statistical analysis, the chemical composition of wood and the presence of salts and mineral compounds correlated with its mechanical strength. An important part of the study focused on examining the factors affecting the construction of coniferous wood structures. The preparation of the raw material correctly can provide information on how the material can be protected during exposure to specific environmental conditions for longer.
