Development of wood polymer composites (WPC) is a very promising approach to overcome most of the disadvantageous properties of wood products viz. poor mechanical and dimensional stability, susceptibility to fungal attack, weathering etc. To substitute the hard wood product, suitable technologies have been developed to modify softwood to meet specific end-use requirements. Various vinyl monomers and copolymers or thermosetting resin in combination with different types of cross linking agents, flame retarding agents have been used to improve the properties of wood. Nanotechnology is a new area...

The rising demand for consistent, high quality, as well as high density wood species has raised interest in different wood modification techniques. Over the last century, better technology coupled with the pursuit to use wood in progressively specialized applications has driven researchers to modify wood by enhancing certain characteristics, eliminating others, and even creating newer ones. In this book, development of wood polymer nanocomposites based on soft wood (Bombax ceiba, L.) has been explored. In addition, various literatures regarding wood chemistry, wood modification processes with...
