Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to develop new methods to eliminate the problems encountered during the impregnation of wood material, and in this context, to improve theretention of wood materialby using liquefied nitrogen. Uludağ Fir (Abies nordmannianasubsp. Bornmulleriana) was used as wood material impregnated with Tanalith-E, Immersol aqua and borax. The effects of liquid nitrogen and the amount of retention on the mechanical properties were investigated. Application of liquid nitrogen before impregnation has increased theretention in fir wood by an average of 150-200% in all impregnation methods, compared to the groups without liquid nitrogen application. Despite this increase in retention amounts, no significant changes were observed in mechanical properties due to the application of liquid nitrogen.
