. . "Ammonia treatment was used to modify a beech veneer. The mechanism and process of ammonia treatment is yet to be fully examined. The goal of this paper was to find out the impact of gaseous ammonia on mechanical properties. i.e., modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE). Significant changes of plasticity of wood were observed when veneers were treated by water or ammonia vapour. The samples which were firstly exposed to water vapour and then to ammonia vapour exhibit the lowest values of MOE and MOR and an enhanced flexibility of the material. The results show that ammonia treatment increases wood plasticity. On the basis of this experiment an experimental stools were designed. Mechanical stability was considered by FEM simulations in ANSYS software. Both values have not reached destructive values of loading force." .
