For the adhesives, the highest swelling (4.3%) was obtained for oriental beech bonded with UF and cut radially, and the lowest swelling (1%) was obtained for Scotch pine bonded with PVAc and cut radially. For the control samples, the humidity-resistance, water-resistance, heat-resistance, and heating and cooling tests decreased the bonding strength. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
