  2. Wood grain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_grain

    Wood grain is the longitudinal arrangement of wood fibers [1] or the pattern resulting from such an arrangement. [2] R. Bruce Hoadley wrote that grain is a "confusingly versatile term" with numerous different uses, including the direction of the wood cells (e.g., straight grain, spiral grain), surface appearance or figure, growth-ring placement (e.g., vertical grain), plane of the cut (e.g ...

  3. Ammonia fuming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_fuming

    Ammonia fuming is a wood finishing process that darkens wood and brings out the grain pattern. It consists of exposing the wood to fumes from a strong aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide which reacts with the tannins in the wood. The process works best on white oak because of the high tannin content of this wood.

  4. Nanmu - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanmu

    Nanmu wood (Phoebe zhennan) grain pattern. Nanmu is a knotty wood that frequently shows a wavy or quilted grain figure. It does not react to humidity and temperature much in the way of expansion or contraction and makes superior furniture which tends not to get loose or crack because of changes in climate. [2] Nanmu woods that are lighter in ...

  5. Thermally modified wood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermally_modified_wood

    Thermally modified wood is engineered wood that has been modified by a controlled pyrolysis process of wood being heated to (> 180 °C) in an oxygen free atmosphere. This process changes to the chemical structures of wood's cell wall components lignin , cellulose and hemicellulose which decreases its hygroscopy and thus increases dimensional ...

    Young tree in natural habitat American chestnut male (pollen) catkins. Castanea dentata is a rapidly-growing, large, deciduous hardwood eudicot tree. [20] A singular specimen manifest in Maine has attained a height of 115 feet (35 m) [21] Pre-blight sources give a maximum height of 100 feet (30 m), and a maximum circumference of 13 feet (4.0 m).

  8. Chestnut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chestnut

    Chestnut wood: Note the splitting at the top of the log. Chestnut is of the same family as oak, and likewise its wood contains many tannins. [38] This renders the wood very durable, [38] gives it excellent natural outdoor resistance, [38] [108] and saves the need for other protection treatment. It also corrodes iron slowly, although copper ...

  9. Janka hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test

    When testing wood in lumber form, the Janka test is always carried out on wood from the tree trunk (known as the heartwood), and the standard sample (according to ASTM D143) is at 12% moisture content and clear of knots. [3] The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain. Testing on the surface of a plank, perpendicular to the ...
