Abstract

This study set out to look into some of the mechanical and physical characteristics of oil-heated oriental beech wood. Waste olive oil was used for oil-heat treatment. Heat treatment of the oil was done at 200 °C and 230 °C for 2 hours and 4 hours, respectively. After oil-heat treatment, physical traits including oven-dry density and water absorption levels, as well as mechanical traits like compression strength parallel to the grain (CSPG), were determined. Oven dry density of wood increased significantly after being heated in oil. Compared to the control groups, waste olive oil heat-treated (WOHT) oriental beech showed lower levels of water absorption. At 200 °C for 4 h, CSPG of waste olive oil heat-treated wood were at their highest, and then they steadily fell as the temperature and treatment time rose.
