Resumo: This study aimed to investigate the effect of the thermal treatment technique under two conditions - autoclavecombined with electric oven and electric oven only - on the hygroscopic properties of wood from Pinus taeda L. and Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden, comparing them with results obtained for untreated wood. Three trees at age 25 years were sampled, with boards being removed at DBH level in order to make specimens 2.5 x 2.5 x 5.0 cm in size in the radial, tangential and axial direction respectively. In the combined treatment, specimens were subjected to thermal treatment in an autoclave set at 130°C/± 3°C and kgf/ cm² pressure for 3 hours, then to a conditioning period, followed by heat in an electric oven set at 160°C/±1°C for the same time. Properties being evaluated included water absorption rate, volumetric swelling, water repellency effectiveness and anti-swelling efficiency. Results revealed that the thermal treatments being adopted were effective in reducing hygroscopicity and in increasing the dimensional stability of both species, revealing also that the combined autoclave and electric oven treatment provides best results.

Hill ex Maiden, comparando-as com os resultados obtidos para a madeira sem tratamento. Foram amostradas três árvores com 25 anos, e destas foram extraídas no DAP uma prancha para a confecção de corpos de prova de 2,5 x 2,5 x 5,0 cm, com orientação na direção radial, tangencial e axial, respectivamente. No tratamento de combinação, as peças foram submetidas a termorretificação em autoclave a 130ºC/±3°C e pressão de 2 kgf/cm², por 3 horas e, após um período de condicionamento, submetidas ao calor em estufa elétrica a 160°C/±1°C, pelo mesmo período. As propriedades avaliadas consistiram na taxa de absorção de água, inchamento volumétrico, efetividade de repelência à água e eficiência antiinchamento. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que os tratamentos térmicos empregados, foram eficientes na redução da higroscopicidade e aumento da estabilidade dimensional de ambas as espécies, sendo que a combinação autoclave e estufa elétrica fornece os melhores resultados.Universidade Federal de Lavras (UFLA)2016-04-052017-08-01T20:13:53Z2017-08-01T20:13:53Z2017-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfMODES, K.
