ABSTRACT = {Wood, recognized as a renewable and environmentally sustainable material, plays a crucial role as an alternative energy resource within the construction industry. However, it is highly susceptible to mold and decay fungi, which can lead to surface discoloration and potentially compromise the structural integrity of wood. The advancement of nanotechnology has introduced innovative strategies for wood protection, enhancing its performance while imparting additional properties. Various approaches including nanosized metals, polymer nanocomposite and coating treatments are actively being explored in this field. Furthermore, integrating bio-based materials with nanotechnology offers a green and sustainable method for wood preservation. This paper provides an analysis, discussion, and synthesis of the applications of nanotechnology in wood protection along with its antifungal mechanisms, thereby contributing novel insights into the research landscape surrounding this topic.},
