摘要
Utilization of oily keruing wood for laminated wood product has not been optimal yet because of the appearance of extractive substance as oil on wood surface and hence disturbing the bonding process. A study has been conducted by manufacturing laminated wood from oily keruing wood (Dipterocarpus hasseltii) after extracting its oil by boiling the wood in the mixture of water and ethanol solution in several proportions. The assessment on the treated wood and the resulting laminated wood covered some characteristics i.e., wettability, static bending, bonding strength, ethanol-water solution can improve wetting properties significantly and delamination. The results show that boiling treatment in The extractive does not affect mechanical characteristics of the laminated wood. Increasing of water proportion in ethanol-water solution causes the decreasing of the bonding strength and increasing delamination value of the laminated wood. The result also shows that oily keruing wood after the treatment can be used as material for laminated wood.
