## Abstract Rubber wood (__Hevea brasiliensis__) was impregnated with styrene and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) as the crosslinking monomer. After impregnation, the polymerization was accomplished by catalyst heat treatment. Water uptake (%) and water vapor exclusion (%) of the rubber wood were found
