Abstract

Abstract To better understand mechano-sorptive creep, creep behaviors were compared in wood samples during the drying process, immediately after drying, and after a long conditioning under constant humidity and temperature. Creep was greater in the sample tested immediately after drying than in the sample conditioned for a long time under relative humidity equal to that after drying, despite the fact that these samples had almost the same moisture content (MC). While the wood that has been moisture-conditioned for a long time is in a stable state, the wood tested immediately after the drying is presumed to be in an unstable state. Moreover, creep of the sample tested during the drying process was greater than that of the sample tested immediately after the drying. It has also been found that the instability decreased with time, indicating that stabilization and destabilization occur simultaneously during the drying process. In recent studies, a decrease in the elastic modulus and an increase in the fluidity of wood immediately after a change in MC or temperature have been reported. These findings are attributed to the instability caused by changes in MC or temperature. Based on the results of the present study and recent studies, we consider the increase in the fluidity of wood as the MC changes to be attributable to instability.
