PCII, and HB of treated specimens compared with untreated specimens. The PCII and HB properties were significantly different between treated samples in water and pH 5 with the treated samples in pH 8 and also untreated samples. It was concluded that the hydrothermal treatment in the buffered medium significantly decreased the mechanical properties of treated specimens of OPW that could be related to the degradation of hemicelluloses. This will highly affect bending and tensile strengths of the OPW. © 2016 by the Society of Wood Science and Technology.
