The growing environmental concerns, connected with the adoption of circular economy principles, and the new, stricter legislative requirements for the emission of harmful VOCs, e.g., free formaldehyde, from wood composites, have posed new challenges to researchers and industrial practice, related to the development of sustainable, eco-friendly wood composites, optimization of the available lignocellulosic raw materials, and use of alternative resources.Eco-Friendly Wood CompositesWood productsFurniture makingWood products.Furniture making.674Bekhta PavloNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910719773103321Eco-Friendly Wood Composites3395691UNINA
