Comparsion of activation energy of thermal degradation of heat sterilised silver fir wood to larval frass regarding fire safety / Jana Luptáková ...[et al.]. -- Obr., tab. -- Lit. - Heat sterilization is a practical and environmentally friendly method to kill all forms of pests (eggs, larvae, adults) in solid wood materials, but it can influence wood properties. Thermogravimetry is a useful tool for the analysis of thermal de gradation of wood and wood - based materials. Methods of chemical analysis, thermal analysis and statistical analysis were used on the samples of s ilver fir wood and larval frass treated at 60 °C and 120 °C for 10 h ours . The activation energies of thermal degradation of wood and frass samples changed negligibly. Correlations between wood components and activation energies were found to be high for wood samples but not for larval frass samples. Therefore, fire safety of woo den parts of buildings is not deteriorated by heat sterilization and can be used without significant alteration of the wood composition and properties.
