From: Control of wood thermal treatment and its effects on decay resistance: a review
Correlation between weight loss (WL%) by white and browns rots [Fomes lividus (Kalchbr. ex Cooke) Sacc. and Lenzites striata var. striata (Sw.) Fr.], MOE and MOR in bending destructive tests, for heat treatments performed on Malapapaya [Polyscias nodosa (Blume) Seem] wood. Thermal process conditions used are the following: temperature ranged from 180 to 230 °C, and various durations comprised between 30 and 120 min. Even if MOE is constant, MOR was correlated to WL.
