Cluster theory for water sorption in wood
Abstract
A review of water interaction in cellulosic-systems, particularly wood, is presented. Discussed are the different states of water in these systems according to Nuclear Magnetic Resonance results, the BET, Dent, and Hailwood and Horrobin sorption isotherm models. The discussion includes details of water structure, and, conformational analysis of cellulose crystals and amorphous cellulose. The water cluster theory is used to more adequately explain the sigmoid curve of the wood isotherm.

Bound water strongly affects the properties of wood below the fiber saturation point, so moisture content must be controlled and monitored.
“Bound water strongly affects the properties of wood below the FSP; hence, the MC must be controlled and monitored [7].”

Moisture content has a significant effect on wood strength under the fiber saturation point.
“MC also has a significant effect on strength under the fiber saturation point (FSP).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
