Specimens are exposed to temperature levels of 212 degrees C for time spans of 1,5 and 2,5 h. Based on the findings in this study, the results showed that oven-dry density, swelling, compression strength parallel to grain, bending strength, modulus of elasticity in bending, janka-hardness (Cross-section, Radial, Tangential), impact bending strength and tension strength perpendicular to grain values decreased with increasing treatment time.en10.4067/S0718-221X2015005000017info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAnti-swelling-efficiencycompression strengthjanka-hardnessmodulus of elasticitymodulus of rupturePrunus aviumEVALUATION OF PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF WILD CHERRY WOOD HEAT-TREATED USING THE THERMOWOOD PROCESSArticle171171178WOS:000352449200018N/AQ2
