The effects of retarder and waterproof agent on the shape and the average dimension of the gypsum crystal were discussed. The mechanism was investigated as well. Four typical instances, i e, the gypsum crystal shape, the gypsum combined with particles on the particles surface, the gypsum combined with particles on the wood cross section and the gypsum combined with particles inside the wood cell cavity were selected and observed. Furthermore, the agglomeration and cementation mechanism between gypsum and particle were studied.展开更多

This study examined the feasibility of bagasse and wheat straw particles in the production of GBPB. One-layer experimental GBPBs with a density of 1.05 or 1.20 g·cm 3were manufactured at different ratios of bagasse/wheat straw, i.e., 100%/0%, 93.75%/6.25%, 87.5%/12.5%, 75%/25%, 50%/50%, 25%/75% and 0%/100% using two particle/ gypsum composite ratios, i.e., 1/2.75 and 1/3.25 by weight. Thickness swelling(TS), water absorption(WA), modulus of rupture(MOR), modulus of elasticity(MOE) and internal bond strength(IB) properties of the boards were evaluated and a statistical analysis was performed in order to examine the possible feasibility of these agricultural residues for use in commercial GBPB manufacturing. We determined that WA of panels decreases as the amount of straw increases to 100% and the LR/G(wood/gypsum) ratio decreases to 1/3.25, whereas the TS of panels decreases as the proportion of straw decreases to 0% and the LR/G ratio increases to 1/2.75. The experimental results also show that the MOR and MOE of panels containing 0%, 6.25% and 12.5% wheat straw with a LR/G ratio of 1/2.75 were higher than those of panels made from 25%–100% wheat straw with a LR/G ratio of 1/2.75, as well as those from all other percentages of straw with a LR/G ratio of 1/3.25. On the other hand, the IB of panels containing more than 12.5% straw with LR/G ratios of 1/2.75 and 1/3.25 were lower than those of panels made from 0–12.5% straw also with both LR/G ratios. Panels consisting of 0%, 6.25% and 12.5% wheat straw with LR/G ratios of 1/2.75 and 1/3.25 met the minimum EN standard requirements of mechanical properties for general purposes. All of the panels containing 0–100% wheat straw with a LR/ G ratio of 1/2.75 or 1/3.25 met the required level of TS for 24-h immersion.展开更多

Effect of the amount of nano SiO2 particles filled, ultrasonic dissipating duration and treating the nano particles with different coupling agents on the mechanical properties of the board were studied respectively. The results show that nano SiO2 is helpful for the improvement of the properties. Adding 3%(mass fraction) nano SiO2 is the best for the improvement of both modulus of rupture(MOR) and modulus of elasticity(MOE) of the boards formed at 30 ℃ or 40 ℃. For the boards formed at 30 ℃, their MOR and MOE can be improved by 8.77% and 12.24%, and MOR and MOE of the boards formed at 40 ℃ can be improved by 44.44% and 108.38%.3% is also the best addition proportion to improve internal bond(IB) of the boards formed at 30 ℃, while 5% is the best for that of the boards formed at 40 ℃. At room temperature, dissipating nano SiO2 into flake by ultrasonic has better effect on the properties of the final products. Through ultrasonic treating for 1 h and the best treating duration, the MOR and MOE can be increased by 41.99% and 47.80%. In addition, different coupling agents have different effects on the final properties too, and silane coupling agent KH570 is better for the improvement of properties of the boards formed at room temperature.展开更多
