This paper deals with the dimensional stability of wood of three species, Pinus massoniana, Quercus acutissima Carr, and Alnus rabeculosa Hand-Mazz, treated with polyethylene glycol (PEG). The optimum treatment condition was gained from the experiment. The dimensional stability of wood treated with PEG was satisfactory, after a period of natural storage and the anti-shrink efficiency of treated wood reached more than 80% and the decay resistance was also raised
