This paper forms a continuation of the work on treatment of timber products with gaseous borate esters. Turner and Murphy (1995) in an earlier paper indicated that gas flow rate into the wood substrate was the principle factor limiting the rate of bo...

Treatment of timber products with gaseous borate esters: Part 1. Factors influencing the treatment process (1995)
Journal Article
Turner, P., & Murphy, R. (1995). Treatment of timber products with gaseous borate esters: Part 1. Factors influencing the treatment process. Wood science and technology, 29(5), 385-395. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf00202586

Several factors which influence the treatment of timber products with vapour phase preservatives such as borate esters are considered. Gas flow rate through the substrate was found to be a significant factor limiting both preservative penetration and... Read More about Treatment of timber products with gaseous borate esters: Part 1.
