The Impact of Different Temperatures Pre-Steaming Treatment on European Beech

Abstract:

European beech specimen by respectively 100 °C, 120 °C, 160 °C of steam pretreatment and then conventional drying. In accordance with GB 1932-80, GB 1934.2-91, GB 1934.1-91, GB 1933-91 and the surface defects after drying and then explore the different temperatures of steaming pretreatment on the European beech’s shrinkage, swelling, water absorption and density of material impact. Ultimately determine the temperature of steaming pretreatment which can enhance the dimensional stability.
