Wood Treating

CARBOWAX™ PEGs are used for the dimensional stabilization of wood and wood products, preventing shrinkage, drying and cracking, and helping to maintain wood softness. Proper preliminary soaking in a PEG solution can permit kiln drying of green wood at higher temperatures without warping or cracking. This soaking can also facilitate subsequent cutting and woodworking operations, and provide permanent dimensional stabilization.
