Application of NIR for evaluation of weathered samples from RR test
Research output: Contribution to conference › Abstract
Wood exposed to weathering is degraded by various environmental agents such as solar radiation, cyclic wetting, atmospheric temperature and relative humidity changes, environmental pollutants and certain micro-organisms. The rate of weathering varies within timber species, but depends most of all on the microclimatic conditions. There is a lot of research dedicated to studies on the weathering mechanisms of diverse materials. However, the comprehensive understanding and detailed models are hardly available for weathered wood surfaces. This research is a part of activities within the Round Robin test, the common initiative of the COST Action FP1006, where 28 sets of samples were exposed in 18 locations in Europe and Brazil.
