Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Behandlung von Holzteilen zur Verbesserung deren anwendungstechnischer Eigenschaften wie z. B. Härte, Wasseraufnahme und Witterungsbeständigkeit.The present invention relates to a method for the treatment of wood parts to improve their performance properties such. As hardness, water absorption and weather resistance.
Tropische Edelhölzer werden für anspruchsvolle Holzkonstruktionen im Innen- und Außenbereich gegenüber heimischen Hölzern bevorzugt, da sie vorteilhafte Eigenschaften aufweisen. Andererseits führt der vermehrte Einsatz tropischer Edelhölzer zur Dezimierung tropischer Regenwälder und ist daher aus ökologischen Gründen abzulehnen. Zudem sind ausreichende Mengen an einheimischen Hart- und Weichhölzern verfügbar, die jedoch oftmals die technischen Anforderungen nicht erfüllen.Tropical exotic woods are preferred for demanding indoor and outdoor wood constructions compared to domestic woods, as they have advantageous properties. On the other hand, the increased use of tropical hardwoods leads to the decimation of tropical rainforests and is therefore to be rejected for ecological reasons. In addition, sufficient quantities of indigenous hardwood and softwoods are available, but often do not meet the technical requirements.
Aus diesem Zwiespalt wurde die Idee der thermischen Behandlung von minderwertigeren Hölzern zur Eigenschaftsverbesserung entwickelt. Gemäß
Alternativ sind Verfahren bekannt, bei denen Holz durch Imprägnierung mit reaktiven Monomeren sowie anschließender Vernetzung derselben modifiziert wird. Derartige Verfahren sind z. B. aus
Nachteilig ist jedoch, dass große Mengen an Imprägniermittel verwendet werden müssen, die zudem das spezifische Gewicht des Holzwerkstoffes deutlich erhöhen. Außedem resultieren aus dem Formaldehydgehalt der verwendeten Imprägniermittel unerwünschte Emissionen aus dem Holzwerkstoff.The disadvantage, however, is that large amounts must be used to impregnating, which also significantly increase the specific gravity of the wood material. In addition, undesirable emissions from the wood-based material result from the formaldehyde content of the impregnating agents used.
Die Behandlung von Cellulose-haltigen Materialien mit Cyanamid ist prinzipiell bekannt. So wird Cellulose - wie in
Bei der Umsetzung von Cellulosefasern mit Cyanamid, reaktiven Aldehyden und Aminen gemäß
Es ist jedoch kein Verfahren zur Behandlung von Cellulose-haltigen Materialien, insbesondere von Holz mit Cyanamid bekannt, bei dem auf den Zusatz weiterer reaktiver Stoffe verzichtet werden kann.However, it is not a method for the treatment of cellulose-containing materials, in particular of wood with cyanamide known in which can be dispensed with the addition of other reactive substances.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung lag daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Modifizierung von Holzteilen in Form von Holz bzw. Holzwerkstoffen zu entwickeln, welches die genannten Nachteile des Standes der Technik nicht aufweist, sondern das bekannte Verfahren zur thermischen Behandlung von Holz mit einem Imprägnierverfahren in der Weise verbessert, dass nur geringe Mengen eines toxikologisch und ökologisch unbedenklichen Imprägniermittels benötigt werden und dennoch vorteilhafte Eigenschaften erhalten werden.The present invention therefore an object of the invention to develop a method for modifying wood parts in the form of wood or wood materials, which does not have the disadvantages of the prior art, but the known method for the thermal treatment of wood with an impregnation in the Improved manner that only small amounts of a toxicologically and ecologically harmless impregnating agent are needed and still obtain advantageous properties.

Es hat sich nämlich überraschenderweise gezeigt, dass die Imprägnierung mit Cyanamid bereits in kleinen Mengen die Eigenschaften der resultierenden Hölzer deutlich positiv beeinflusst und dass die Wärmebehandlung eine spezifische Vernetzungsreaktion zwischen Cyanamid und reaktiven Gruppen innerhalb der Holzstruktur auslöst. Das Cyanamid wird so überraschenderweise irreversibel in die Holzstruktur eingebunden und verbessert die technischen Eigenschaften der so behandelten Hölzer.It has surprisingly been found that the impregnation with cyanamide, even in small amounts, has a markedly positive effect on the properties of the resulting woods and that the heat treatment triggers a specific crosslinking reaction between cyanamide and reactive groups within the wood structure. The cyanamide is surprisingly irreversibly incorporated into the wood structure and improves the technical properties of the treated wood.
Beim Verfahren entsprechend der vorliegenden Erfindung werden die Holzteile in Form von Hölzern oder Holzwerkstoffen zuerst einer Imprägnierung mit Cyanamid (Stufe a)) und anschließend einer Wärmebehandlung (Stufe b)) unterworfen.In the method according to the present invention, the wood parts in the form of wood or wood-based materials are first subjected to impregnation with cyanamide (step a)) and then to a heat treatment (step b)).
Hierbei werden preiswerte Hart- und Weichhölzer der gemäßigten Breiten behandelt, die vorzugsweise aus nachhaltiger Forstwirtschaft stammen. Beispiele sind die europäischen Hölzer Fichte, Tanne, Kiefer, Birke, Buche, wie z.B. Rotbuche oder Hainbuche, Ahorn, Pappel, Erle, Linde, Douglasie, Esche und Eiche sowie außereuropäische Hölzer mit analogem Eigenschaftsprofil.This low-priced hardwood and softwoods of moderate widths are treated, which preferably come from sustainable forestry.

Sie können aber auch in Form von Furnieren oder Spänen zur nachfolgenden Verwendung zur Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffen vorliegen. Alternativ können auch fertige Holzwerkstoffe (Sperrholz, Spanplatten, Holzfaserplatten, OSB-Platten, Leimholz) mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren behandelt werden.The woods are preferably as solid wood (boards, planks, slats) before. But they can also be in the form of veneers or chips for subsequent use for the production of wood-based materials. Alternatively, finished wood materials (plywood, chipboard, wood fiber boards, OSB boards, glued wood) can be treated by the method according to the invention.
Die genannten Hölzer bzw. Holzwerkstoffe werden vorzugsweise durch Anwendung von Vakuum und/oder Druck mit einer Cyanamid-haltigen Lösung imprägniert. Geeignet hierfür sind Einrichtungen, wie sie üblicherweise für die Kesseldruckimprägnierung von Hölzern eingesetzt werden.The said woods or wood-based materials are preferably impregnated by the application of vacuum and / or pressure with a cyanamide-containing solution. Suitable for this purpose are facilities such as are commonly used for the boiler pressure impregnation of woods.
Die wässrige Imprägnierlösung soll 1 bis 50 Gew.-% Cyanamid, besonders bevorzugt 5 bis 25 Gew.-% Cyanamid, insbesondere 10 bis 15 Gew.-% Cyanamid enthalten. Der pH-Wert der Imprägnierlösung soll im Bereich 3,0 bis 7,0 liegen, vorzugsweise pH 4,0 bis 5,5 oder pH 4,5 bis 5,0. Die Imprägnierlösung kann ggf. weitere Stoffe enthalten, wobei dem Fachmann bekannte, wasserlösliche Holzschutzmittel im Konzentrationsbereich von jeweils 0,01 bis 5,0 Gew.-% bevorzugt sind. Typische Beispiele für derartige Zusatzstoffe sind z. B. Fungizide, Insektizide oder Biozide, wie z. B. Kupferverbindungen, Fluoride, Borate, Silicate, Phenol, 1,2,4-Triazole, insektizide Phosphorsäureester oder Neonicotinoid-Insektizide. Zur Verbesserung der Flammfestigkeit der Hölzer oder Holzwerkstoffe können Phosphate, Borate oder Sulfamate zugemischt werden. Zusätzlich können Pigmente und/oder Farbstoffe und/oder ultraviolettes Licht absorbierende Stoffe enthalten sein.The aqueous impregnating solution should contain 1 to 50% by weight of cyanamide, particularly preferably 5 to 25% by weight of cyanamide, in particular 10 to 15% by weight of cyanamide. The pH of the impregnating solution should be in the range 3.0 to 7.0, preferably pH 4.0 to 5.5 or pH 4.5 to 5.0. The impregnating solution may optionally contain further substances, the water-soluble wood preservatives known to the person skilled in the art in the concentration range of 0.01 to 5.0% by weight being preferred. Typical examples of such additives are, for. As fungicides, insecticides or biocides, such as. As copper compounds, fluorides, borates, silicates, phenol, 1,2,4-triazoles, insecticidal phosphoric acid esters or neonicotinoid insecticides. To improve the flame resistance of wood or wood materials phosphates, borates or sulfamates can be added. In addition, pigments and / or dyes and / or ultraviolet light absorbers may be included.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform enthält die wässrige Cyanamidlösung weiter oberflächenaktive Stoffe, vorzugsweise in einer Menge von 0,02 bis 0,2 Gew.-%, insbesondere 0,05 bis 0,015 Gew.-%. Durch die Verwendung oberflächenaktiver Stoffe wird die Imprägnierung des Holzes erleichtert, besonders geeignet sind dabei nicht-ionische, kationische oder anionische Tenside.In a preferred embodiment, the aqueous cyanamide solution further contains surfactants, preferably in an amount of 0.02 to 0.2 wt .-%, in particular 0.05 to 0.015 wt .-%. By the use of surface-active substances, the impregnation of the wood is facilitated, particularly suitable are nonionic, cationic or anionic surfactants.
Die Imprägnierung (Stufe a)) erfolgt geeigneterweise in einem Temperaturbereich zwischen 0 und 60 °C, insbesondere 20 bis 40 °C. Durch Anwendung von Vakuum (0,02 bis 0,98 bar) bzw. Druck (1,02 bis 15 bar), auch nacheinander und in mehreren Zyklen, kann eine möglichst vollständige Imprägnierung des Holzes mit der Imprägnierlösung erreicht werden. Beispielsweise kann ein 1- bis 5-maliger Wechsel von Druck- und Vakuumbehandlung erfolgen. Entsprechende Verfahren sind dem Fachmann bekannt.The impregnation (step a)) is suitably carried out in a temperature range between 0 and 60 ° C, in particular 20 to 40 ° C. By applying a vacuum (0.02 to 0.98 bar) or pressure (1.02 to 15 bar), also in succession and in several cycles, a complete impregnation of the wood with the impregnating solution can be achieved become. For example, a 1- to 5-fold alternation of pressure and vacuum treatment can take place. Corresponding methods are known to the person skilled in the art.
Es ist als erfindungswesentlich anzusehen, dass die derart imprägnierten Hölzer ggf. nach Trocknung einer Wärmebehandlung unterzogen werden. Die optionale Trocknung der mit der wässrigen Cyanamid-Lösung imprägnierten Hölzer kann bei Temperaturen von 20 bis 150 °C, vorzugsweise bei 40 bis 130 °C erfolgen, wobei der äußere Druck ggf. durch Anlegen von Vakuum auf 0,01 bis 1,0 bar eingestellt wird. Die Trocknungszeit beträgt mehrere Stunden, vorzugsweise 1 bis 24 Stunden.It is to be regarded as essential to the invention that the woods impregnated in this way are optionally subjected to a heat treatment after drying. The optional drying of the impregnated with the aqueous cyanamide wood can be carried out at temperatures of 20 to 150 ° C, preferably at 40 to 130 ° C, wherein the external pressure, if necessary, by applying a vacuum to 0.01 to 1.0 bar is set. The drying time is several hours, preferably 1 to 24 hours.
Es ist jedoch auch möglich, die Trocknung der imprägnierten Hölzer in einem gemeinsamen Verfahrensschritt zusammen mit der beschriebenen Wärmebehandlung durchzuführen. Gemäß dieser speziellen Verfahrensvariante wird die Trocknung durch Einwirkung der für die Wärmebehandlung vorgesehenen Temperatur- und Druckbedingungen eingeleitet, wobei dann ein gleitender Übergang zur Wärmebehandlung erfolgt.However, it is also possible to carry out the drying of the impregnated woods in a common process step together with the described heat treatment. According to this special process variant, the drying is initiated by the action of the temperature and pressure conditions provided for the heat treatment, in which case a sliding transition to the heat treatment takes place.
Der Temperaturbereich der Wärmebehandlung liegt zwischen 130 und 250 °C, bevorzugt 150 bis 220 °C, insbesondere 170 bis 200 °C. Die Zeitdauer der Wärmebehandlung beträgt 1 bis 36 Stunden, wobei Zeiten zwischen 2 und 12 Stunden oder 4 bis 8 Stunden bevorzugt sind. Die Trocknung und anschließende Wärmebehandlung erfolgt bevorzugt in mehreren Temperaturstufen, wobei schrittweise die genannte Temperatur angenähert wird.The temperature range of the heat treatment is between 130 and 250 ° C, preferably 150 to 220 ° C, in particular 170 to 200 ° C. The duration of the heat treatment is 1 to 36 hours, with times between 2 and 12 hours or 4 to 8 hours being preferred. The drying and subsequent heat treatment is preferably carried out in several temperature stages, wherein said temperature is gradually approached.
Die Wärmebehandlung kann drucklos erfolgen, ggf. aber auch unter einem Druck von bis zu 10 bar, z.B. bei 3 bis 7 bar, wobei die Atmosphäre bevorzugt Luft, Stickstoff, Wasserdampf oder eine Mischung derselben enthalten kann.The heat treatment can be carried out without pressure, but possibly also under a pressure of up to 10 bar, for example at 3 to 7 bar, wherein the atmosphere may preferably contain air, nitrogen, water vapor or a mixture thereof.
Nach der Wärmebehandlung haben die behandelten Hölzer eine Restfeuchte von vorzugsweise kleiner 10 %. Sie können als solche als Konstruktionshölzer eingesetzt werden, wie z. B. für tragende oder nichttragende Bauteile an Gebäuden, für Türen, Fenster, Möbel (insbesondere Gartenmöbel) und Holzelemente im Gartenbau. Alternativ können die behandelten Hölzer (insbesondere in Form von Furnieren, Spänen etc.) zur Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffen eingesetzt werden, die wiederum für die genannten Einsatzbereiche Verwendung finden können.After the heat treatment, the treated woods have a residual moisture of preferably less than 10%. They can be used as such as construction timbers, such. As for load-bearing or non-structural components of buildings, doors, windows, furniture (especially garden furniture) and wood elements in horticulture. Alternatively, the treated woods (especially in the form of veneers, chips, etc.) can be used for the production of wood-based materials, which in turn can be used for the applications mentioned.
Die erfindungsgemäß behandelten Holzteile zeichnen sich durch sehr gute anwendungstechnische Eigenschaften wie z. B. hohe Härte, geringe Wasseraufnahme und sehr gute Witterungsbeständigkeit aus.The invention treated wood parts are characterized by very good performance properties such. As high hardness, low water absorption and very good weather resistance.
Aufgrund der beobachteten Eigenschaftsprofile ist davon auszugehen, dass Cyanamid mit den spezifischen Inhaltsstoffen von Holz (Cellulose, Hemicellulose, Lignin) in einer Weise reagiert, dass dieses auch ohne Einsatz zusätzlicher Vernetzungsmittel nach Wärmebehandlung kovalent in das Holz-Netzwerk eingebunden wird und so zur Eigenschaftsverbesserung entscheidend beiträgt.Based on the observed property profiles, it can be assumed that cyanamide reacts with the specific ingredients of wood (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin) in such a way that it is covalently integrated into the wood network even without the use of additional crosslinking agents after heat treatment, thus making property improvement crucial contributes.
Die nachfolgenden Beispiele sollen das Wesen der Erfindung näher erläutern.The following examples are intended to explain the essence of the invention in more detail.
Aus homogenem Holzmaterial (Fichte bzw. Birke) wurden Probekörper im Format 80 x 25 x 25 mm geschnitten, getrocknet und gewogen.From homogeneous wood material (spruce or birch) specimens were cut in the format 80 x 25 x 25 mm, dried and weighed.
Die Probekörper wurden in Cyanamid-Lösung (bzw. Wasser als Referenz) eingetaucht und durch 2-maliges Evakuieren komplett imprägniert. Dann wurde bei 60 °C im Vakuum getrocknet.The test specimens were immersed in cyanamide solution (or water as reference) and completely impregnated by evacuation twice. Then it was dried at 60 ° C in a vacuum.
Wie aus
Probekörper, die mit Wasser bzw. mit 10 Gew.-%iger Cyanamid-Lösung gemäß Beispiel 1 imprägniert waren, wurden bei 160 °C (8 Stunden) bzw. bei 200 °C (3 Stunden) thermisch nachbehandelt. Über die Gewichte der Probekörper wurde die Wasseraufnahme bzw. -abgabe sowie die Cyanamid-Aufnahme festgehalten (siehe
Durch die Wärmebehandlung dunkeln die Hölzer nach, naturgemäß bei 200 °C stärker als bei 160 °C. Birke bekommt bei 200 °C etwa die Farbe von Mahagony. Die Anwesenheit von Cyanamid hatte keinen Einfluss auf die Farbe. Lediglich bei den mit Cyanamid behandelten Fichtenproben zeigte sich eine Gelbfärbung, die bei Wärmebehandlung wieder verschwand.By the heat treatment, the woods darken, naturally stronger at 200 ° C than at 160 ° C. At 200 ° C, birch gets about the color of mahogany. The presence of cyanamide did not affect the color. Only the spruce samples treated with cyanamide showed a yellow color, which disappeared on heat treatment.
Die Gewichtsabnahme bei der Wärmebehandlung zeigt zweierlei Effekte:
- Ca. 6 Gew.-% gebundenes Wasser werden bei schonender Trocknung abgegeben, bei 160 °C erhöht sich die
Menge auf 8 Gew.-%, bei 200 °C auf Gew.-12 %. Ursache ist die bekannte Kondensation freier OH-Gruppen im Holz unter Wasserabspaltung. - Befindet sich Cyanamid im Holz, so wird bei der Wärmebehandlung (korrigiert um das Cyanamid-Gewicht) mehr Wasser abgegeben, und zwar bei 160 °C bzw. 200 °C zusätzlich jeweils etwa 30 Gew.-% des Cyanamid-Gewichts. Diese zusätzliche Wasserabgabe ist auf eine Reaktion von Cyanamid mit OH-Gruppen in der Holzstruktur zurückzuführen.
- Approximately 6% by weight of bound water are released with gentle drying, at 160 ° C. the amount increases to 8% by weight, at 200 ° C. to 12% by weight. The cause is the known condensation of free OH groups in the wood with dehydration.
- If cyanamide is present in the wood, more heat is released during the heat treatment (corrected for the cyanamide weight), and Although at 160 ° C or 200 ° C additionally each about 30 wt .-% of the cyanamide weight. This additional water release is due to a reaction of cyanamide with OH groups in the wood structure.
Die gemäß Beispiel 2 behandelten Hölzer wurden auf ihre Härte geprüft. Dabei ergab sich:
Die gemäß Beispiel 2 behandelten Hölzer wurden für 7 Tage bei 20 °C in Wasser eingetaucht. Die Wasseraufnahme (als Massen-%) bzw. die Volumenzunahme der Prüfkörper wurde ermittelt (siehe Abbildungen 3 und 4).The treated according to Example 2 woods were immersed for 7 days at 20 ° C in water. The water absorption (as mass%) or the volume increase of the specimens was determined (see Figures 3 and 4).
Hier zeigte sich, dass - wie erwartet - die Wasseraufnahme durch Wärmebehandlung des Holzes reduziert wird. Bei gleichzeitiger Anwesenheit von Cyanamid wurde die Wasseraufnahme noch weiter reduziert, wobei der Effekt proportional zur eingebrachten Cyanamid-Menge war.Here it was shown that - as expected - the water absorption is reduced by heat treatment of the wood. In the simultaneous presence of cyanamide water absorption was further reduced, the effect was proportional to the amount of cyanamide introduced.
Ohne nachfolgende Wärmebehandlung zeigte die Imprägnierung mit Cyanamid keinen ausgeprägten Effekt. Ein chemischer Einbau des Cyanamids unter Vernetzung der Holzstrukturen ist somit anzunehmen.Without subsequent heat treatment, the impregnation with cyanamide showed no pronounced effect. A chemical installation of the Cyanamide under networking of the wood structures is therefore to be assumed.
Das Wasser, in dem die Probekörper aus Beispiel 4 eingetaucht waren, wurde chemisch analysiert. Dabei ergaben sich folgende in Abbildungen 5, 6 und 7 dargestellte Analysenwerte:
- bei Imprägnierung und anschließender Trocknung bei 60 °C waren nur ca. 30
bis 40 Gew.-% des in Form von Cyanamid eingebrachten Stickstoffs nicht extrahierbar.
Über 60bis 70 Gew.-% der im Holz befindlichen Stickstoff-Verbindungen waren durch Wasser extrahierbar. Die extrahierbaren StickstoffKomponenten bestanden zu über 90 Gew.-% aus unverändertem Cyanamid, daneben fand sich nur etwas Dicyandiamid und Harnstoff. Es zeigt sich also, dass ohne nachfolgende Wärmebehandlung die Cyanamid-Behandlung keine vorteilhaften Eigenschaften ergibt. - Nach Wärmebehandlung bei 160 °C waren ca. 70
bis 80 Gew.-% des in Form von Cyanamid eingebrachten Stickstoffs durch Wasser nicht mehr extrahierbar.
Nur ca. 20bis 30 Gew.-% der im Holz befindlichen Stickstoff-Verbindungen waren durch Wasser extrahierbar. Unter den extrahierten Stickstoff-Verbindungen war kein Cyanamid nachweisbar. Ca. 75 Gew.-% der extrahierbaren Stickstoffkomponenten bestanden aus Dicyandiamid, 5 Gew.-% aus Harnstoff, 5 Gew.-%aus Guanidin und 10 Gew.-% aus Melamin. - Nach Wärmebehandlung bei 200 °C waren > 90 Gew.-% des in Form von Cyanamid eingebrachten Stickstoffs nicht mehr extrahierbar, d. h. fest an das Holz gebunden.
Weniger als 10 Gew.-% der im Holz befindlichen Stickstoff-Verbindungen waren durch Wasser extrahierbar. Unter den extrahierten Stickstoff-Verbindungen war kein Cyanamid nachweisbar. Ca. 40 Gew.-% der extrahierbaren Stickstoffkomponenten bestanden aus Melamin, 8 Gew.-% aus Dicyandiamid, 12 Gew.-% aus Harnstoff und < 5 Gew.-% aus Guanidin. Zusätzlichen wurden weitere unidentifizierte N-Verbindungen nachgewiesen.
- when impregnated and then dried at 60 ° C only about 30 to 40 wt .-% of the introduced in the form of cyanamide nitrogen were not extractable.
About 60 to 70 wt .-% of the wood-based nitrogen compounds were extractable by water. The extractable nitrogen components consisted of more than 90% by weight of unchanged cyanamide, besides only a little dicyandiamide and urea were found. It thus turns out that without subsequent heat treatment the cyanamide treatment does not give any advantageous properties. - After heat treatment at 160 ° C., about 70 to 80% by weight of the nitrogen introduced in the form of cyanamide could no longer be extracted by water.
Only about 20 to 30 wt .-% of the wood in the nitrogen compounds were extractable by water. No cyanamide was detectable among the extracted nitrogen compounds. Approximately 75% by weight of the extractable nitrogen components consisted of dicyandiamide, 5% by weight of urea, 5% by weight of guanidine and 10% by weight of melamine. - After heat treatment at 200 ° C.,> 90% by weight of the nitrogen incorporated in the form of cyanamide was no longer extractable, ie firmly bound to the wood.
Less than 10% by weight of the wood nitrogen compounds were extractable by water. No cyanamide was detectable among the extracted nitrogen compounds. Approximately 40 wt .-% of the extractable nitrogen components consisted of melamine, 8 wt .-% of dicyandiamide, 12 wt .-% of urea and <5 wt .-% of guanidine. Additional unidentified N compounds were added demonstrated.
Es zeigt sich somit, dass die Wärmebehandlung des mit Cyanamid imprägnierten Holzes zu einer spezifischen Reaktion unter vollständiger chemischer Umsetzung des Cyanamids führt, bei dem die Reaktionsprodukte von Cyanamid fest in die Holzstruktur eingebunden werden. Somit ist der überraschende Effekt der Eigenschaftsverbesserung durch Imprägnierung mit Cyanamid und anschließender Wärmebehandlung chemisch-mechanistisch erklärbar.Thus, it turns out that the heat treatment of the cyanamide-impregnated wood leads to a specific reaction with complete chemical reaction of the cyanamide, in which the reaction products of cyanamide are firmly bound in the wood structure. Thus, the surprising effect of property improvement by impregnation with cyanamide and subsequent heat treatment can be explained chemically-mechanistically.
Hölzerne Prüfkörper gemäß Beispiel 2 wurden der Witterung ausgesetzt. Nach einer Verweildauer von 12 Monaten wurde die Witterungsbeständigkeit abgeschätzt.
