Description
The irradiation processing of polymeric materials
is a main step in certain modern technologies. On the other
hand, polymeric materials included in parts of irradiation
facilities or in nuclear plants are subjected to the action of
ionizing radiation in the presence of air. These facts explain
the high interest in the study of radiation effects on
polymers. Timber is a polymeric material and also it is
successfully employed as a structural or decorative material
in a wide variety of application. In Myanmar, timber is
extensively employed as a structural and decorative material
in a wide variety of applications as well as being a major
export commodity. In fact, the commercially important
timber species will become scarce due to the development of
wood- based industries and increased domestic and
international trade. Thus, the Forest Department has
considered that commercially important timber should be
substituted by other appropriate woody species or by some
lesser-used timber species (LUS). In collaboration with
International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO), the
Forest Department has undertaken a project on “Introducing
M y a n m a r ’ s L e s s e r -Used T imb e r S p e c i e s t o t h e
World Market”. The radiation techniques for the
improvement of the quality of these LUS are new to us. In
this project, the changes in physical properties such as
dimensional changes and specific gravity, and mechanical
properties such as static bending test, compression tests and
hardness tests of Leza, a lesser used Myanmar timber species,
following radiation processing with 10kGy gamma radiation
has been studied. The timber samples were obtained from
Timber Physical Section and Timber Mechanical Section,
Forest Research Institute (F.R.I), Yezin and these samples
were informed to be collected from Kabaung Reserve Forest
of Taunggu Forest Division. The results for these tests were
analyzed at 95 percent confidence level by using Statistical
Analysis System. The results revealed that although the
physical properties of Leza are not significantly changes at 95
percent confidence level, the results for strength properties of
Leza are significantly changed at 95 percent confidence
level after gamma radiation.
