Abstract

Results from a previous study were investigated further with a mass study and scanning electron microscopy. The fractured surfaces of the WPCs, irradiated at 250 kGy, and solid wood (Acer saccharum) specimens, irradiated at 1,000 kGy, were examined using scanning electron microscopy. Evidence of wood fiber degradation was investigated using the micrographs.
