Table 3 A table to show the calculated mean bending strength (MOR) values of wood species that have been treated with scCO2(PURE) and scCO2(MeOH) in comparison to the untreated oven-dried samples
From: Hydrating softwood and hardwood samples using pure and modified supercritical carbon dioxide

Red Oak (M) | 521 | 743 | 717 | 600 |
Zebrano (M) | 791 | 970 | 958 | 900 |
Maple (H) | 634 | 605 | 562 | 444 |
White Oak (H) | 514 | 633 | 574 | 524 |
