ANALYSIS OF IMPREGNATION/COMBUSTION (TGA) OF MEDICAL AROMATIC PLANT EXTRACT ON WOOD IN ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM (HUMAN/ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH)
Özet
Within the scope of the research, the impregnation of ferula plant extract (1%, 3%, 5%) from medicinal aromatic plant (antioxidant/antibacterial) species, which has a significant place in the ecological system, into the wood of scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) was carried out and the thermal combustion (TGA) feature of the impregnated wood was analyzed. With the destruction of today's forest resources, instead of synthetic preservatives that threaten human/environmental health, medicinal aromatic plants and wastes, which are indispensable materials of humanity, applied in various fields in the ecological environment, as impregnation material in the wood industry (indoor/outdoor furniture, hospitals, playgrounds, children's toys) was planned and fire parameter change, which is a threat to human/environmental health, has been investigated.
According to the research results; pre -impregnation and post-impregnation changes on concentrations were not determined. In terms of retention, the highest value was determined as 1% ferula extract (3.99%), and the lowest as 1% ferula extract (insect + fungi) samples (2.83%). In TGA analysis, the residue amount was determined as 22.23% in the highest 5% ferula extract (with insects). Compared to the control sample, positive results were obtained in impregnated (intact) samples.
