Abstract

A series of the studies on the applied physical properties of main domestic species have been conducted last three years. Equilibrium moisture content(EMC) of Pinus koraiensis, Larix kaemferi, Pinus koraiensis were investigated. The experiments for sorption property were conducted with 20- and 80-mesh wood powder and resulted in their EMC's at various sorption conditions. Amount of moisture sorption and sorption speed of Larix kaemferi were shown the most large values and very fast among three Korean main coniferous wood.
