Abstract In order to improve hydrophobic characteristics which will affect the service performance of fast-growing poplar
due to growing bacteria in the humid environment. In this study, a simple method was proposed to treat poplar
via the high voltage electric field (HVEF) with copper as the electrode plate. Scanning electron microscope (SEM),
Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and contact angle tester were adopted
to evaluate the surface morphology, surface group of poplar, crystallinity and wettability under HVEF. It was
found by SEM that a large number of copper particles were uniformly attached to the surface of poplar. In… More >
