  2. Thermally modified wood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermally_modified_wood

    This heat treatment causes a serious loss in strength properties, especially toughness and abrasion resistance. When the wood is heated beneath the surface of a molten metal the strength loss for any antishrink efficiency is less than when heated in air.

  3. List of fire-retardant materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fire-retardant...

    Fire-retardant materials should not be confused with fire-resistant materials. A fire resistant material is one which is designed to resist burning and withstand heat. An example of a fire-resistant material is one which is used in bunker gear worn by firefighters to protect them from the flames of a burning building.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_preservation

    Heat treatment can also improve the properties of the wood with respect to water, with lower equilibrium moisture, less moisture deformation, and weather resistance. It is weather-resistant enough to be used unprotected, in facades or in kitchen tables, where wetting is expected.

  5. Starlite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlite

    White sands test sample, owned by Thermashield, LLC. Starlite is an intumescent material said to be able to withstand and insulate from extreme heat. It was invented by British hairdresser and amateur chemist Maurice Ward (1933–2011) during the 1970s and 1980s, and received significant publicity after coverage of the material aired in 1990 on the BBC science and technology show Tomorrow's ...

  6. Fatwood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatwood

    The stump (and tap root) that is left in the ground after a tree has fallen or has been cut is the primary source of fatwood, as the resin-impregnated heartwood becomes hard and rot-resistant after the tree has died. Wood from other locations can also be used, such as the joints where limbs intersect the trunk.

  7. Fire retardant gel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_retardant_gel

    The stacking of the water "bubblets" form a thermal protective "blanket" over the surface to which it is applied. In order for the heat of the fire to penetrate the protected surface, it must burn off each layer of the gel "bubblets" coating. Each layer holds the heat away from the next layer of bubblets beneath.

  8. Varnish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varnish

    Varnish on wood stairs Varnished oak floor. Varnish is a clear transparent hard protective coating or film. It is not to be confused with wood stain.It usually has a yellowish shade due to the manufacturing process and materials used, but it may also be pigmented as desired.

  9. Danish oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danish_oil

    When applied in coats over wood, Danish oil cures to a hard satin finish that resists liquid well. As the finished coating is not glossy or slippery, it is a suitable finish for items such as food utensils or tool handles, giving some additional water resistance and also leaves a dark finish to the wood.
