The use of absorption spectrophotometry in wood preservation
1972
Ampong, K.
The aim of wood preservation is to extend the service life of non-durable wood species under conditions conducive to destruction by wood-destructing organisms. The efficacy of any preservative treatment depends, among other factors, on the concentration of the preservative in the treated zone and the depth of penetration. Wood preservatives are often complex mixtures of toxic chemicals which in most cases penetrate the wood differentially. The paper discusses the use of absorption spectrophotometer to determine not only the amount of preservative in a particular section of the wood but also the amount of the various toxic components in various parts of the treated wood.
