Zhigang Zhang · China Forest Products Industry · 2003
The influence of NS modification on the drying property of larch lumber was studied through the contrast drying tests between NS modified larch lumber and unmodified one according to the same drying schedule. The results showed that NS modification could greatly improve the drying property of larch lumber. The average drying speed of the NS modified 40mm thickness lumber increased by 48% and over than that of unmodified one; All quality indices of NS modified drying lumber were above the grade-2 specified in state standard,and completely satisfied the requirements of furniture production etc.
