Detection of AE Generated by Penetration of Termites into Physical Barrier

The feasibility of a physical barrier using Polynite uniformed the particle size for termite was examined in a laboratory testing and AE monitoring as a method for the detection of the penetration of termites into the Polynite barrier at an early stage was also investigated, for the application of Polynite barrier in the house.
