In this study, the effect of nano technological varnish on some mechanical properties (such as bending strength, modulus of elasticity and compressive strength) of oriental spruce (Picea orientails L. Link) wood and the effect of boric acid on mechanical properties of nano-technological varnished wood were investigated. Moreover, it was aimed to estimate bending strength, modulus of elasticity and compressive strength values of impregnated and nano-technological varnished wood material by using artificial neural network models. Nano-technological varnish increased the bending strength, modulus of elasticity and compressive strength parallel to fiber of the samples. It was found that MAPE values are low for bending strength, modulus of elasticity and compressive strength. This situation showed that artificial neural network (ANN) gives very successful results.
