Im curious how much more value would you get out of this over something like an acid treated wood like Accoya and strength comparisons~
I am a wood turner interested in thermally modified wood in my work. My question is about Mulberry. Unlike most woods, Mulberry darkens dramatically when exposed to UV. Would Torrefaction change this property? Would your process darken the wood in a similar matter? Have you run your process with Mulberry? Thanks for your informative video.
Mulberry isn't a species we have done before. I am assuming that it must be the natural oils present in mulberry that darken the wood when exposed to UV light. Thermal modification would be removing these natural oils, just like it does to any species. Therefore my best guess would be that thermal modification would stop the natural darkening by UV. After the process it would be a various shade of brown. The process caramelizes the sugars and turns every species a different shade of brown. since we have never done mulberry before, i would have no idea what shade of brown it would turn ( it would also depend on the temperature it is being thermally modified at) or if that shade would be similar to the colour it would naturally turn.
Hope that long winded response answer your question. only one way to know for sure, if to try it out and see what happens.
Thank you sir, I appreciate your response and it is quite helpful.@@thermalwoodcanada
Can this be painted?
Coatings can be a bit tricky when it comes to thermally modified wood. Due to the process, thermally modified wood becomes hydrophobic, so any water based stains or paints won't penetrate into the wood, and just makes a coating on top. which will eventually peel. Depending on the end use of the product, the particular product you are using and the finish of the wood it self, will all affect how long the coating will last before it starts to peel. But they will all peel at some point. Now oil based stains are a completely different story. Oil will penetrate into the pores. Actually thermally modified wood saw dust works wonders at picking up spilled oil on the garage floor. But oil stains won't peel, if using outside the colour pigment in them will fade and a new coat would have to be applied, but they wont peel.
Except that there are 3 phases. Great commercial.
Did you happen to watch the 3 other videos that go along with this series ? This is the video series we send out to architects, which they have always found informative. If you have any questions, feel free to give us a call, we will be happy to help.
This was a commercial for your company. You didn’t teach anything of the process as you stated
Did you happen to watch the other 3 videos of the series? Although I do see you made the exact same comment on the ep. 1 video, so you may have. Bob's gives this same presentation to architectural firms in Canada and the U.S. Its EPP certified as well as certified with the AIA for continued learning credits for professional architects. if you have any questions, feel free to reach out. we are happy to answer any questions.
