Four different extracts were obtained by extracting Cinnamomum camphora xylem with hot water, methanol, ethyl acetate, and chloroform. Thereafter, wood (Masson pine) was impregnated with these different extracts, and the decay resistance performance of the wood treated with the extracts was studied.
