Chapter by Gardner, Oporto, and Tze published in “Lignocellulosic fibers and wood handbook: renewable material’s for today’s environment”
“Wood and fiber-based composites: surface properties and adhesion,” a chapter written by Dr. Douglas Gardner, Dr. Gloria Oporto, and Dr. William Tai Yin Tze has been published as part of a new book titled “Lignocellulosic fibers and wood handbook: renewable material’s for today’s environment.”
A description of the book follows: “This book will focus on lignocellulosic fibres as a raw material for several applications. It will start with wood chemistry and morphology. Then, some fibre isolation processes will be given, before moving to composites, panel and paper manufacturing, characterization and aging.”
The book was edited by Mohamed Naceur Belgacem and Antonio Pizzi.
