Abstract Gluing wood in the wet state can reduce warping, splitting, and increase processing volume recovery. Adhesive open time and moisture content may play an important role in bond line strength, but there are no specifications for wet wood bonding. Wood specimens at two different moisture contents were glued with three polyurethane adhesives and tested in shear on the bond line. Open time of 15 min was superior to 4 and 40 min. All adhesives performed better when wood was glued at 30% moisture content than at 101%, but only the 15- and 40-min open time met the minimum shear requirement.
