Identification of factors influencing the maximum flexure of beech wood plasticized by microwave heating

Original language description

This paper reports on the influence of selected factors and their interactions on maximum flexure after plasticizing beech wood by microwave heating. To our knowledge, the use of microwave heating has not been reported for plasticizing wood yet. Therefore, a proper procedure was developed to verify the use of microwave heating for the purpose of plasticizing. The determination of maximum flexure was based on the principle of static bending with three-point loading. Maximum flexure was monitored in beechtest samples with dimensions of 25 x 25 x 400 mm (cross-sectional dimensions were selected according to standard testing samples). Samples were divided into three groups of initial moisture contents of 65%, 30% and 20%. Our research confirmed only the influence of plasticizing time and moisture content on the maximum flexure of wood plasticized by microwave heating, exactly as we expected. The other two factors, orientation (radial and tangential) and placement (in the center or on the
