Применение древесины осины в промышленном производстве материалов и изделий ограничено из-за ее низких механических свойств, подверженности поражению коррозионно-деструктивной гнили, отсутствием должного обоснования технологии ее переработки. Невостребованная осина осложняет условия хозяйствования в лесу, ухудшает породный состав древостоев, препятствует восстановлению хвойных пород древесины. Древесина осины хуже смачивается водой по сравнению с другими породами. Изучение ее поверхностных свойств и строения на микроуровне представляет безусловный интерес для изучения взаимодействия древесины с водой, жидкими клеящими и защитно-декоративными веществами. Это сложная многопараметрическая задача, решение которой может явиться новым инструментом для обоснования наукоемких технологических процессов сушки, пропитки, склеивания и облагораживания древесины. Истинная поверхность древесины, образованная в результате обработки резанием (лущением, пилением, фрезерованием) значительно больше ее проекции на плоскости в результате разрезания микроструктурных элементов. Неровности на поверхности искажают результаты измерения поверхностных свойств, определяемых на основе угла смачивания. Учитывая то, что размеры стенок клеток меньше размеров полостей, истинная площадь поверхности древесины, в зависимости от вида разреза, может в десятки раз превышать кажущуюся. Ухудшение способности смачиваться объясняет образование на поверхности капель клея, нанесенного на шпон методом вальцевания. При горячем прессовании фанеры в первый момент времени повышается подвижность молекул клея, снижается упругость древесины, поверхность выравнивается, улучшая условия адгезионного взаимодействия связующего и древесины. Для определения истинных характеристик древесины, обоснования расхода клея, способности древесины поглощать жидкость необходимо знать размеры ее микроструктурных элементов и характер их распределения, объем поверхностных полостей. Эффективный радиус полостей древесины осины может быть описан с использованием теории фракталов. The use of aspen wood in manufacturing of materials and products is limited due to its low mechanical properties, corrosion susceptibility destructive lesion decay, its lack of proper justification processing technology. Unclaimed aspen difficult economic conditions in the forest, degrades the species composition of forest stands and prevents restoration of softwood. Wood aspen worse moistened with water compared to other breeds. The study of its structure and surface properties at the micro level is of great interest to study the interaction of wood with water, liquid adhesives and protective-decorative materials. This is the problem whose solution can be a new tool for the study of science-intensive technological processes of drying, impregnation, gluing and surface finishes. Real wood surface, formed by the machining (peeling, sawing, milling) significantly greater its projection on the plane as a result of cutting the microstructural elements. Surface irregularities distort the results of measurement of surface properties which are determined based on the contact angle. Given that the size of the cell walls is less than the size of the cavities, the true surface area of the veneer, depending on the type of incision, may be ten times the apparent. The deterioration of the ability of wetted explains the formation of droplets on the surface of adhesive deposited on the veneer by rolling. When plywood hot pressing at a first time increases mobility of adhesive molecules, decreases the modulus of elasticity of wood, surface is aligned, improving the conditions of interaction of the glue and the wood. To determine the true characteristics of the wood, glue flow study, the ability of wood to absorb liquid it is necessary to know the size of microstructural elements and their distribution, the amount of surface cavities. The effective radius of aspen wood cavities can be described using fractal theory.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of thermo-mechanical densification on the density, hardness, compression strength, bending strength (MOR), and modulus of elasticity (MOE) of fir and aspen wood pretreated with water repellents was analyzed. Wood specimens were impregnated with paraffin, linseed oil and styrene after pre-vacuum treatment. Then, the impregnated wood specimens were densified with compression ratios of 20 and 40%, and at 120, 150 and 180 °C. The results indicated that the density, hardness and strength properties of the all densified specimens (untreated and impregnated) increased depending on the compression ratio and temperature. For all tested properties, higher increases were obtained in the paraffin and styrene pretreated specimens compared to untreated samples. However, the increase rates in linseed oil pretreated specimens were generally lower than untreated specimens. Regarding water repellents the most successful results in all tested properties were determined in styrene pretreated specimens. The density, hardness and strength properties of all specimens increased with the increase in compression ratio. On the other hand, the increase in the compression temperature negatively affects the properties of untreated and linseed oil pretreated specimens, while having a generally positive effect on the properties of paraffin pretreated specimens. However, all tested properties of styrene pretreated specimens have increased significantly due to the increase in compression temperature. The increasing strength properties of wood as a result of densification have increased much more with paraffin and especially styrene pretreatment. These combinations can be considered as an important potential for applications that require more hardness and strength.

Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] had several effects on carbon translocation in sugarbeet (Beta vulgarisL. ‘Klein E multigerm’): a) import of carbon by sink leaves was inhibited, b) net starch accumulation in source leaves was stopped, and c) carbon export from source leaves in the dark was stopped following 10 h of treatment in the light. During periods when no carbon was exported, glyphosate also was not transported from treated leaves. The limitation of glyphosate transport, resulting from disruption of carbon metabolism, appears important in the study and use of the herbicide.
