Abstract
The objective of the ERA-IB-project ProWood is to generate innovative, economically feasible and
ecologically friendly bio-coatings to protect wood against decay. The project involves sol-gel-systems,
functionalized vegetable oils and alkyd coatings suitable for incorporation of decay preventing biotechnologically
derived fillers (microorganism s or biological compounds such as enzymes).
