Abstract
A process of producing modified wood by impregnating dried wood with a mixed solution composed of phthalic anhydride as a polybasic acid anhydride and epichlorohydrin as an epoxy compound at a mol ratio of 1:1 to 1:30 by dipping the wood in the mixed solution, withdrawing the impregnated wood from the mixed solution, and heating the wood to a temperature of from 60.degree. C. to 180.degree. C. to simultaneously adding phthalic anhydride and epichlorohydrin to the hydroxyl groups of the wood. By the process of this invention, excellent dimensional stability and weather resistance can be imparted to the wood while retaining the properties specific to the wood.
