Selection of an appropriate product for the job should be accompanied by decisions about the appropriate protection, whether this is by design, by preservative treatment or by wood modification techniques. This Special Issue, Advances in Wood Composites presents recent progress in enhancing and refining the performance and properties of wood composites by chemical and thermal modification and the application of smart nanomaterials, which have made them a particular area of interest for researchers. In addition, it reviews some important aspects in the field of wood composites, with particular focus on their materials, applications, and engineering and scientific advances, including solutions inspired biomimetrically by the structure of wood and wood composites. This Special Issue, with a collection of 13 original contributions, provides selected examples of recent Advances in Wood Composites 606 $aHistory of engineering and technology$2bicssc 610 $aAbaqus 610 $aacetic anhydride 610 $aactivation volume 610 $aadhesive penetration 610 $aalder plywood 610 $aaquacultural 610 $abamboo 610 $abending strength 610 $abiorefinery lignin 610 $abuckling 610 $acarbothermal reduction 610 $acellulose 610 $aceramic 610 $achemical modification 610 $achemical structure 610 $acoating amount 610 $acolor 610 $acomposite 610 $acreep behavior 610 $acrystallinity 610 $adimensional stability 610 $adynamic thermodynamic 610 $afinite element analysis 610 $aformaldehyde emissions 610 $agraphene nano-platelets 610 $aHDPE 610 $ahigh-density polyethylene film 610 $ahydrophobicity 610 $amechanical and physical properties 610 $amechanical properties 610 $amechanical property 610 $amethyl methacrylate 610 $amodulus of elasticity in bending 610 $an/a 610 $ananocompounds 610 $ananowollastonite 610 $aoak (Quercus alba L.) 610 $aoriented strand lumber (OSL) 610 $aparticleboard properties 610 $aplastic 610 $apolymer-triticale boards 610 $apolyurethane-acrylate 610 $arapid formaldehyde release 610 $asepiolite 610 $ashear strength 610 $asilicon carbide 610 $asol-gel process 610 $asol-gel process 610 $aSouthwell's method 610 $astepped isostress method 610 $astraw 610 $astructural analysis 610 $asurface properties 610 $asustainable adhesives 610 $athermal modification 610 $athermal property 610 $athermoplastic polymers 610 $athickness swelling 610 $atunnel-structured 610 $aUF resin 610 $aVOCs 610 $awater absorption 610 $awater-based UV curing coating 610 $awood 610 $awood adhesive 610 $awood panels 610 $awood plastic composite 610 $awood-inorganic composites 610 $aWPC 615 7$aHistory of engineering and technology 700 $aPapadopoulos$b Antonios N$4auth$01280538 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404087703321 996 $aAdvances in Wood Composites$93039224 997 $aUNINA
