The hygroscopic nature of wood leads to large moisture fluctuations in the material that may influence mechanical performance glued products. Adhesives based on bone, fish and hide have a long tradition for gluing can be found wooden structures our cultural heritage. In this study, selected sorptive properties animal adhesives been compiled compared those synthetic polyurethane adhesives. Bone,...
