Abstract: A brief overview of wood modification chemistry and technologies is presented. One example of a wood modification process targeted at enhancing radiata pine wood material surface hardness was researched at the Forest Research Institute (now Scion) and commercialised in New Zealand. This paper describes the theory, chemistry developed and its commercialisation.
