Fig. 2From: Effects of modification with a combination of styrene-acrylic copolymer dispersion and sodium silicate on the mechanical properties of woodModulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) in bending of poplar (a, c) and radiata pine (b, d) untreated and treated with 10% SAC and varying concentrations of SS, respectively. The labels shown in the x-coordinate: W = wood sample, CTRL = untreated control, SAC means styrene-acrylic copolymer and SS is sodium silicate. The bottom and top edges of the box are standard deviation, the band in the box is 50th percentile, × -symbol at the end of box chart represents the 1st percentile (bottom end) and the 99th percentile (top end), the small square in the box represents the mean, and the whiskers out of box chart represent the outliersBack to article page
