Water uptake and permeability in sapwood and heartwood of hydro-thermally proceed Turkey oak
Original language description
This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of steaming and heating on the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L.) wood over a nine-year period. The study also aimed to determine the impact of steaming on water absorption and water permeability, crucial for the durability of the species against environmental factors. The specimens underwent thermal modification with and without steaming, then were stored under laboratory conditions for ten years. The mass of the specimens was monitored throughout the ten-year period. To measure the water uptake capacity, the specimens were soaked in water for 120 hours. The water permeability of the specimens was assessed using a pressurised chamber. The results showed that the moisture content of thermally-modified oak was constant under laboratory conditions after nine years, further improved by steam treatment. The research also revealed that the steamed wood absorbed more water during water submersion compared to the unmodified wood. When the steaming treatment was applied, there was a significant increase in permeability in the sapwood compared to the heartwood, due to anatomical variations. Despite this, statistical noise, and material variability, alongside tylosis presence, underline the need for examining more specimens in future studies.
