Changes in physical, mechanical and chemical properties of wood during sterilisation by gamma radiation
Gamma irradiation, which is an easy, fast and effective method for wood sterilisation, changes molecular structures not only in pest cells, but also in wood cell walls. Radiation-induced depolymerisation causes significant changes in some properties of wood crucial for restoration and for laboratory testing of wood-preservative effectiveness, as demonstrated by experimental data. The influence of gamma radiation on maximum swelling (α MAX), resistance to impact milling (RIM), and the total amount of water-soluble carbohydrates (TSC) was investigated. Cobalt (60Co) was used as a gamma source and Scots pine wood (Pinus sylvestris L.) was irradiated at doses of 30, 90 and 150 kGy. A strong linear correlation was found between TSC and radiation dosage. Leached irradiated specimens showed significantly greater TSC content than non-irradiated controls. RIM decreased significantly and linearly with increasing radiation dosage. After leaching, the linearity between these parameters improved. Gamma radiation had no significant effect on α MAX and the time elapsed after irradiation did not influence α MAX, RIM or TSC.
