Subsequently, samples of unsteamed and steamed beech wood were irradiated with a UV lamp in a Xenotest Q-SUN Xe-3-HS after drying in order to test the color stability of steamed beech wood. The color change of the wood surface was evaluated by means of measured values on the coordinates of the color space CIE L*a*b*. The results show that the surface of unsteamed beech wood as well as steamed beech wood with a steam-air mixture at a temperature of t = 95\u00b0C and saturated steam with a temperature of t = 125\u00b0C darkened and turned brown to a brown-yellow color due to UV radiation. The deep brown-red color of the surface of beech wood steamed with saturated steam with a temperature of t = 135\u00b0C brightened to a brown-yellow color similar to the color of unsteamed beech wood. The analysis of the changes in the color space CIE L* a* b* shows that the greater the darkening and browning of the beech wood by steaming, the smaller the changes in the values of \u0394L*, \u0394a* \u0394b* of the steamed beech wood caused by UV radiation. The positive effect of steaming on UV resistance is evidenced by the decrease in the overall color difference \u0394E*. While the value of the total color difference of unsteamed beech wood caused by UV radiation is \u0394E* = 15.3, for beech wood steamed with a saturated steam-air mixture at t = 95\u00b0C it decreased to \u0394E* = 9.5, which is a decrease of 37.9%, for steamed beech wood steamed with saturated steam with temperature t= 115\u00b0C is \u0394E* = 6.2 which is a decrease of 59.4% and for steamed beech wood steamed with saturated steam with temperature t = 135\u00b0C is \u0394E* = 4.5 which is a decrease of 70.5%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3979],"tags":[267,1973,269,525,245],"release_year":[],"ppma_author":[264,265],"class_list":["post-4277","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wood-research-volume-67-number-3-2022","tag-color-difference","tag-fagus-sylvatica-l-2","tag-saturated-water-steam","tag-uv-radiation","tag-wood"],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"Stela Sl\u00e1mov\u00e1","author_link":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/author\/slamovavupc-sk\/"},"authors":[{"term_id":264,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"ladislav-dzurenda","display_name":"Ladislav Dzurenda","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""},{"term_id":265,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"michal-dudiak","display_name":"Michal Dudiak","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4277"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4277\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4279,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4277\/revisions\/4279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4277"},{"taxonomy":"release_year","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/release_year?post=4277"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=4277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
