The paper considers the features of modification of wood (pine) with reactive copolymers based on glycidyl methacrylate and fluorine (alkyl) methacrylates to impart water-repellent properties. Such modification provides the achievement of superhydrophobic properties and a decrease in the water permeability of the material due to a smaller spot of contact of water drops with the surface. Wood water absorption index reduced by 3 times.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
