Background:
My interest lies in research activities relating to science of wood materials and wood protection technologies. Wood is an excellent material utilized in diverse constructions. However, its properties:physical, mechanical and chemical must be improved upon to meet present challenges in climate change which may influence its serviceability and utilization for a relatively long period, in a cost effective way to the users and sustainability of forest resources.
