Softwood with increased Hardness and Durability
Scientists at the University of Göttingen developed new compounds and a treatment, wherein domestic softwoods like e.g. Pinus radiata, pine or beech achieve the durability, hardness and stability of top-quality tropical woods. The compounds cross-link under pressure the cellulose fibers inside the wood. Thus the useful properties and performance of tropical woods are achieved, while the treated wood can still be normally processed.

Light weighted (insulating) boards
Scientists at the University of Göttingen developed new insolating board based on very light wood composites replacing wood in a high percentage with a renewable source. They achieve a low density and less amount of adhesives is required.

Wood Plastic Composites (WPC), OSB, chipboards and particle boards with higher durability and quality
Scientists at the University of Göttingen developed a novel timber protecting composition based on fatty acids and paraffin derivatives for protecting Wood Plastic Composites (WPC), chipboards and particle boards. Particularly the durability and quality is increased. Developed was a pre-treatment of the lignocellulosic material by paraffines containing an alumina catalyst or by activated fatty acids. These residues contain N-methylol groups as a reactive group, and do not only adhere to the basic material, but chemically react with the hydroxyl groups of lignocellulosic material and remain covalently bound to the material.

Insecticide-free pest control of MedFly with transgenic Fruit Fly
The Mediterranean fruit fly (Medfly, Ceratitis capitata) is one of the most harmful food pests. Scientists at the University of Göttingen developed a new pest control: novel reproductive sterility system for the Medfly, based on transgenic embryonic lethality, without the need of radiation.
