Natural durability of acetylated OSB in ground stake test: total decay after 102 months of testing

摘要

Acetylated OSB stakes were tested in ground contact in Western Greece. Two levels of acetylation were used, a high and a low level of 20.4% and 11.2% acetyl content, respectively. The highly acetylated stakes showed severe attack after 96 months and total decay after 102 months of testing.
