Engineers have discovered a way to increase the density of wood, improving its mechanical performance as a structural material
A new pre-treatment process developed by Maryland engineers can produce extremely dense wood with more than 10 times the strength, toughness, ballistic resistance, and dimensional stability of normal wood. The developers claim the specific strength of their processed wood variant exceeds that of most structural metals and titanium alloys while being cheaper than carbon fiber. […]
