Abstract This study aimed to investigate the water absorption capacity of thermally modified and non-modified spruce and
blue-stained spruce wood. The wettability of wood depends on various factors, including its type, density, porosity, and surface treatment. Wood can swell and become distorted when exposed to water or humidity, impacting
its structural integrity. Hence, it is crucial to consider the water and water vapour uptake in the wood when
choosing materials for applications that are likely to be exposed to moisture. Various moisture absorption tests
were conducted to assess water absorption capacity, including short-term and long-term water… More >
