Wood chips of oak(Quercus mongolica) and larch(Larix leptolepis) were treated with low pressure steaming explosion. Main components of exploded wood were separated with hot water and methanol extraction. Crude lignin separated from those extractives were purified and those chemical characteristics were investigated. And also, lignin adhesive was prepared from crude lignin and studied those chemical characteristics. The results can be summarized as follows ; 1. The purified lignin by Bj$\ddot{o}$kman's method from crude lignin is about 30% in exploded oak wood and is about 11% in exploded larch wood as a low amount. 2. The phenolic hydroxyl groups in the purified lignins are little higher than those of MWL and molecular weight distributions of the purified lignins are some lower than that of MWL. 3. Alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation products are very low in the clude lignin but those are increased in the purified lignin 4. The gravity of lignin resins(1.15 and 1.13) are a little lower than that of phenol resin(1.16) and the compressive shearing strength of lignin resins are higher than those of phenol resin.

To analyze the relationship between climatic factors (monthly mean temperature and total precipitation) and tree-ring growths of Quercus mongolica Fischer (Mongolian oak) with different topographic sites in Mt. Worak, more than 10 trees were selected from each of seven stands. Two cores from each tree were measured for ring width. After crossdating, each ring-width series was double standardized by fitting first a negative exponential or straight regression line and secondly a 60-year cubic spline. Seven stands were categorized in two groups using cluster analysis for tree-ring index patterns. Cluster I (four stands) was located in higher elevation (550-812 m) with aspects of east, west and northwest, and cluster II (three stands) was located in rather lower election (330-628 m) with aspects of north and northwest. The aspects of two clusters were not significantly different. Response-function analysis showed a significant positive response to March precipitation for both clusters. It indicates that moisture supply during early spring season is important to radial growth because the cambial growths of ring-porous species, such as Mongolian oak, start before leaf growth. Cluster II showed a positive response to the precipitation of middle and late growing season, too.

This study investigated the characteristics of wood tar, produced as a byproduct during the production of charcoal using oak wood by the modified traditional kiln and mechanical steel kiln. The wood tar was analyzed with a number of techniques, including Py-GC/MS, NMR, MALDI-TOF, FT-IR, TG and DSC. The Py-GC/MS analysis indicated that modified traditional kiln generated a higher hydrocarbon ratio in the wood tar than that of mechanical steel kiln. On the other hand, mechanical steel kiln resulted in a higher proportion of phenolic and aromatic hydrocarbon components than that of modified traditional kiln. Those results were also confirmed by NMR analysis. The MALDI-TOF analysis suggested that the wood tar produced in the mechanical steel kiln had a slightly higher molecular weight than the wood tar produced in the modified traditional kiln. In addition, the FT-IR analysis showed characteristic peak of symmetrical stretching vibration of $CH_3$ from the modified traditional kiln while characteristic peaks of the C-C and C-O stretching vibration were observed from the mechanical steel kiln. Moreover, TG and DSC analysis suggested that the mechanical steel kiln is more thermally stable than that of modified traditional kiln. Those findings clearly showed that the method of making charcoal greatly affects the properties of wood tar.

목탄의 제조과정에서 발생되는 목타르의 신용도를 찾고자 목타르를 이용한 레졸형 페놀수지접착제를 제조하여, 합판에 대한 접착력 시험을 실시하였다. 소나무타르계 접착제는 미첨가 페놀접착제와 비교했을 때, 고형분, 점도와 같은 수지의 물성은 유사하였으며, 인장 전단 접착력에서도 비내수, 내수 모두 페놀접착제에 비해 크게 떨어지지 않았다. 그러나, 참나무타르계 접착제의 경우에서는 수지물성도 페놀수지와는 다른 물성을 보였으며, 내수접착력은 페놀접착제의 접착력에 비해 절반 정도의 낮은 접착력을 보였다. 포름알데히드 방출량은 목타르의 첨가량이 많을수록 많이 방출되었다.

포수상태(包水狀態)의 루부라참나무(Quercus rubra) 시험편을 3가지 등온조건(等溫條件)에서 건조한 결과를 비정상상태(非正常狀態)의 확산(擴散)모델로 추정한 결과와 비교하였다. 표면이 충분히 젖은 상태인 건조초기에는 불안정(不安定)한 확산현상(擴散現象)이 관찰되었으나, 함수율(含水率)별 건조속도의 변이를 Fick's의 확산법칙과 비교할 때 유사한 형태를 보였다. 실험에서 얻은 건조조건별 건조곡선은 확산모델의 수치해석(數値解析) 결과와 거의 일치하였으며, 같은 평위함수율(平衛含水率) 조건에서 건조온도의 증가는 목재표면 보다 내부의 함수율 변화에 더 크게 영향하여 결과적으로 낮은 온도에서의 건조조건이 목재 내의 수분경사(水分傾斜)를 급하게 하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 본 연구를 통해 목재 건조 중의 내부에 발생하는 수분경사를 추정하는데 비정상상태의 확산모델이 모든 함수율 범위에 걸쳐 유용하게 사용될 수 있음이 밝혀졌다.

The Palsangjeon Pagoda is a five-story wooden building in the Beopjusa Temple area in the Songnisan national park in Chungcheongbuk-do, Korea. According to historical records, it was constructed in either AD 1605 or AD 1626. To specify the construction year more precisely, we took 41 wood samples for tree-ring analysis during repair actions in 2013; 28 from red pine (Pinus densiflora S. et Z.), 12 from oak (Quercus spp.), and 1 from fir (Abies spp.). The tree-ring boundaries became clearly visible by smoothing their cross-sectional surface and the tree-ring widths were measured under a stereo microscope. All tree-ring series were compared with each other to establish mean chronologies, which we then compared with local master chronologies established using tree rings collected from wooden elements of the Daeungjeon Hall which is the main building in the Beopjusa Temple area. As a result, it was verified that the red pines were felled in AD 1624 and in AD 1851. Moreover, it was verified that the oaks were also felled in AD 1624 based on cross-dating with the red pine chronology. We concluded that the Palsangjeon Wooden Pagoda was constructed in AD 1626, as mentioned in the historical record (Daeungdaekwangmyeongjeonbulsangki, 1630) and the letters on a purlin on the $4^{th}$ story, using oak and red pine felled in AD 1624 and repaired later on using red pine felled in AD 1851.

백색부후균 Trametes versicolor(CV5) 균주에 의한 wood lignin의 분해능을 조사하였다. CV5는 활엽수와 침엽수에 속하는 여러 수종의 프로토 리그닌 분해 시 활엽수에 한해서 분해되는 특성을 보였으며, 특히 상수리나무에서 33.5%의 가장 높은 리그닌이 분해되었다. 리그닌 분해에 관련된 phenoloxidase 분비능을 Bavendamm 시험을 통해 검토한 결과 CV5는 지금까지 연구된 우수 백색 부후균과 같은 유사 반응 형태를 나타내고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 상수리 목재 chip표면에 CV5의 균사가 생육하면서 목재조직이 부후된 상태를 주사전자 현미경으로 관찰한 결과 목섬유 및 도관에서 균사의 침투와 목재조직의 분해를 확인하고 리그닌에 대한 높은 선택적 분해력을 갖고 있음을 구명하였다.

Laser cutting tests were conducted to investigate the laser cutting characteristics of solid woods such as 25mm-thick white oak(Quercus acutissima) and maple(Acer mono), and wood-based panels such as 15mm-thick medium density fiberboard and particleboard. Test variables were laser power, cutting speed, grain direction, and moisture content. Cutting depths, kerf widths and the maximum cutting speed were measured. Cutting depths were increased as focus of laser beam was moving from above the workpiece to on the surface of workpiece, and also to below the workpiece. Kerf widths were decreased as focus of laser beam was moving from above the workpiece to on the surface of workpiece, but were increased as focus of laser beam was moving from on the surface of workpiece to below the workpiece. Minimum kerf widths were obtained when focus of laser beam was positioned on the surface of workpiece. Cutting depths and kerf widths were decreased with increase in moisture content, and cutting depths and kerf widths of more dense white oak were smaller than those of maple. And also cutting depths and kerf widths of particleboard were smaller than those of medium density fiberboard.

Herein, a case study discussing the effect of carbonaceous aerosol pollution, which is emitted during the charcoal kiln manufacturing processes or carbonization processes, on the atmospheric environment is presented . In South Korea, in situ analysis of different charcoal production plants specialized in the production of charcoal sauna indicate that the emitted organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) aerosols are significantly influenced by the nature of the biomass and technological processes, i.e., treatment or emissions abatement systems for the exhaust effluent gases. In detail, total carbon (TC), which is calculated as the sum of OC and EC emission factors, varied widely from a charcoal production site to another ranging from 21.8 to 35.8 gTC/kg-oak, where the mean value for the considered production sites was approximately 28 gTC/kg-oak (N = 7 and sum = 196.4). Results indicate that the emission factors from a modern charcoal production process in South Korea are quantitatively lower in comparison with the traditional kiln. This study aims to propose advanced wood processes for the production of charcoal from the viewpoint of environmental protection policy and green engineering.
