The quality and cost of wood particle composites are substantially
determined by how the adhesive that bonds the composite is
distributed on the particles. Distribution of the adhesive is controlled
by the method of a ...
An understanding of the dynamics of individual tree and stand
growth, development, and structural patterns during the immature
formative years of a commercial species is essential to determine
correct thinning practic ...
Difficulties have been encountered in gluing some Southeast
Asian woods using phenolic resin. Extractives in veneers from the
trade groups yellow, white, and red meranti (Shorea, Parashorea,
and Pentacme spp. ), kerui ...
The study evaluates the use of Competitive Stress Index (CSI) as a
quantitative measure of stand density in a young-growth Douglas-fir
stand in Western Oregon which had been subjected to various thinning
regimes. Oper ...
An average stand diameter yield table and a diameter growth
per decade table are presented for unmanaged stands of quaking
aspen in southwest Colorado. The yield table presents yields per
tree for the following utiliz ...
The relationships of several wood quality traits with seed origin
and phenological characteristics, measured at a young age, were
tested from six seed sources in a young Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga
menziesii (Mirb.) Fran ...
Past research has implied that differences in blender performance
between commercial and laboratory particleboard blenders
may not be attributed to resin distribution between screen fractions,
as is commonly believed ...
