Abstract

In this research, effect of the alkaline precursors of soda and ammonia as reagent deposition of zinc oxide nanoparticles using hydrothermal method in structure and physical properties of poplar wood were investigated. The samples of physical test were prepared with dimensions of 2*2*2 cm3 according to ASTM-D4446-05, and divided to three levels; control, Zncl2/NH3 and Zncl2/Naoh at 0.05M concentration and pH=10. Test samples were impregnated with salty precursor in the experimental cylinder using vacuum-pressure method, and in order to adjust the pH, soda and ammonia added. Due to the electron microscope images, change the type of precursor deposition, caused the different structure of ZnO nanoparticle. Retention of zinc oxide nanoparticles, density changes, water absorption, swelling and anti-swelling efficiency (ASE) were determined after synthesis. Retention of zinc chloride precursor with ammonia and soda acidity regulator was determined 4.43 and 1.71kg/m3 respectively. Water absorption increased at first hours of immersion, and then decreased. These treatments increased water absorption of wood. Least swelling and water absorption, and maximum ASE were measured in Zncl2/NH3 level.
