styrene/pinus

A strain of Penicillium expansum was studied for the production of styrene using forest waste biomass as a feeding substrate. The fungal strain was cultivated on bark of various trees supplemented with yeast extract and the volatiles produced were collected on Tenax TA and analyzed by gas

The pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) is a severe pest of conifer seedlings in reforested areas of Europe and Asia. To identify minimally toxic and ecologically sustainable compounds for protecting newly planted seedlings, we evaluated the volatile metabolites produced by microbes isolated from H.

Some mechanical properties of wood-polymer composites from maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) and poplar (Populus x. euramericana cv. I-214) wood were investigated. Three different monomers; styrene (ST), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene/methyl methacrylate (ST/MMA) mixture were used in

To explore new methods to maintain the dimensional stability of waterlogged archaeological wood after drying and keep the natural cell lumens unaltered for future retreatments, activator regenerated by electron transfer (ARGET) atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is employed to consolidate
