Axel Maximilian Solt-Rindler

Dipl.-Ing. Dr. Axel Maximilian Solt-Rindler is a researcher at the Institute of Wood Technology and Renewable Resources, Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna. Based at Konrad Lorenz-Straße 24, Tulln an der Donau, his work focuses on wood-based composites, dimensional stability, adhesive interactions, and thermal properties of wood. He has published extensively on topics including bioinsulated panels, pyrolysis behavior, and sustainable wood processing techniques.

• Current Affiliation: Institute of Wood Technology and Renewable Resources, Department of Agricultural Sciences, BOKU Vienna

Research Interests: His research examines how adhesives affect multi-layered wood panels' dimensional stability, thermal conductivity changes in heat-treated wood, and innovative uses of agricultural biomass like oil palm trunk fibers. He explores chemical, mechanical, and environmental factors in wood composites, emphasizing sustainability and resource efficiency.

Scientific Contributions: Recent articles highlight advancements in

• Lightweight cellulosic insulation (2024)
• Wood auto-ignition characteristics (2023-2024)
• Adhesive-induced warping (2017-2019)
• Bark-based porous materials (2023)

Advisory Role: Supervised 2 master's theses, including Maximilian Wondrak's 2025 work on dust-based wood composites and Roman Meixner's 2023 research on bio-thermoplasts. Participated in 7 international conferences (2017-2023) across Austria, Canada, Netherlands, Portugal, and USA.
