内容説明

The effective and lasting treatment of wood against insect and fungal attack is continually growing in importance, as forestry reserves decline and timer costs increase. At the same time environmental pressures bear heavily on the chemicals and processes employed in the preservation of wood. This book is designed to interest research workers and practitioners in the industry and is unique in providing both a broad overview and referenced detail on the biology, chemistry and application technology involved in timber treatment. It gives a brief account of the historical background to the subject, covers current treatment chemicals and application methods, and takes a forward look at improvements which should result from a better understanding of the chemical mechanisms involved. The Chemistry of Wood Preservation gives attention to the environmental issues and legislative measures confronting the industry, as well as standards to be met and analytical procedures necessitated. In addition the book realistically draws a line between the efficacy of preservative action and the safe handling of and exposure to the chemicals used. Written by acknowledged international experts in the field, the book is a must for those directly involved in the preservation of wood, as well as for scientists working in related areas. It will also be a very useful course book for teachers and students of timber technology.
