From research on the use of chiral ionic liquids with a natural origin substituenl for wood proteclion. Antifungal activities of chiral ionic liquids - menthoxymethylimidazolium derivates against brown-rot decay fungus (Coniophora puteana), white-rot decay fungus (Trametes versicolor) and blue-stain fungus (Sclerophoma pithyophila) were determined using screening agar-plate and agar-block methods. Results from antifungal tests revealed that 1-hexyl-3-[(1R,2S,5R)-(-)menthoxymethyl]imidazolium chloride exhibited the strongest antifungal activity against wood decay fungi (basidiomycetes) compared with the commercial didecyldimethylammonium chloride. Whereas compound with twelve carbons alkyl substituent has a weak antifungal activity. The infrared spectral analysis (FTIR ATR) confirmed that chiral imidazolium ionic liquids were built into the structure of the treated wood.
The object of the presented research project was sapwood of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), which was subjected to thermal and hydrothermal treatment. The objective of the performed investigations was to determine fungal resistance of this material to wood destroying fungi. Experimental wood was modified in the atmosphere of air and water vapour in conditions of the following temperatures: 160, 190 and 220°C for 6 and 24 hours. Fungal resistance of modified wood was determined applying an accelerated mycological test. The following test fungi were used in the performed experiment: Coniophora puteana, Gleophyllum trabeum, Poria placenta and Coriolus versicolor. The obtained results showed a correlation between conditions of the performed hydrothermal process of wood treatment and its resistance to test fungi species.
