Surface Modification of Wood by Plasma Treatment and Plasma Polymerization.

Abstract

Wood is an organic materials which has been made from water and CO2 by photosynthesis. Wood has a characteristic cell tissue, pore structure and chemical composition.These chraracteristic provide various properties, for exsample strength hygroscopicity, thermal insulation, sound insulation, and bio-degradation. However, wood has various shortcomings. The author studied production of wood materials of high performance and durability by plasma treatment and plasma polymerization.
