The variations of pH, heat release and gel pH during the reactions were monitored and measured. Infrared spectroscopy (IR) and thermal gravity analysis (TG) techniques were used to characterize the curing reaction. It was found that organic ester is only partial y hydrolyzed and resin can be cured through organic ester hydrolysis process as wel as the reaction with redundant organic ester. The sequential curing mechanism of alkaline phenolic resin cured by organic ester was identified as fol ows: a portion of organic ester is firstly hydrolyzed owing to the effect of the strong alkaline; the gel is then formed after the pH decreases to about 10.8-10.88, meanwhile, the redundant organic ester (i.e. non-hydrolysis ester) starts the curing reaction with the resin. It has also been found that the curing rate depends on the hydrolysis velocity of organic ester. The faster the hydrolysis speed of the ester, the faster the curing rate of the resin.展开更多
Five organic esters with different curing speeds:propylene carbonate(i.e.high-speed ester A);1,4-butyrolactone;glycerol triacetate(i.e.medium-speed ester B);glycerol diacetate;dibasic ester(DBE)(i.e.lowspeed ester C),...Five organic esters with different curing speeds:propylene carbonate(i.e.high-speed ester A);1,4-butyrolactone;glycerol triacetate(i.e.medium-speed ester B);glycerol diacetate;dibasic ester(DBE)(i.e.lowspeed ester C),were chosen to react with alkaline phenolic resin to analyze the application conditions of ester cured alkaline phenolic resin.The relationships between the curing performances of the resin(including pH value,gel pH value,gel time of resin solution,heat release rate of the curing reaction and tensile strength of the resin sand)and the amount of added organic ester and curing temperature were investigated.The results indicated the following:(1)The optimal added amount of organic ester should be 25 wt.%-30 wt.%of alkaline phenolic resin and it must be above 20 wt.%-50 wt.%of the organic ester hydrolysis amount.(2)High-speed ester A(propylene carbonate)has a higher curing speed than 1,4-butyrolactone,and they were both used as high-speed esters.Glycerol diacetate is not a high-speed ester in alkaline phenolic resin although it was used as a high-speed ester in ester cured sodium silicate sand;glycerol diacetate and glycerol triacetate can be used as medium-speed esters in alkaline phenolic resin.(3)High-speed ester A,medium-speed ester B(glycerol triacetate)and low-speed ester C(dibasic ester,i.e.,DBE)should be used below 15°C,35°C and 50°C,respectively.High-speed ester A or lowspeed ester C should not be used alone but mixed with medium-speed ester B to improve the strength of the resin sand.(4)There should be a suitable solid content(generally 45 wt.%-65 wt.%of resin),alkali content(generally 10 wt.%-15 wt.%of resin)and viscosity of alkaline phenolic resin(generally 50-300 mPa·s)in the preparation of alkaline phenolic resin.Finally,the technique conditions of alkaline phenolic resin preparation and the application principles of organic ester were discussed.展开更多

The test results indicated that the NCC content had little influence on the peak temperature, activation energy and the total heat of reaction of LPF resin at 5 and 10°C/min. But at 20°C/min, LPF0.00% (LPF resin without NCC) showed the highest total heat of reaction, while LPF0.25% (LPF resin containing 0.25% NCC content) and LPF0.50% (LPF resin containing 0.50% NCC content) gave the lowest value. The wet shear strength was affected by the NCC content to a certain extent. With regard to the results of one-way analysis of variance, the bonding quality could be improved by NCC and the optimum NCC content ranged from 0.25% to 0.50%. The wood failure was also affected by the NCC content, but the trend with respect to NCC content was not clear.展开更多

The influences of the adding time of Ba(OH)_2, the adding amount of NaOH, Ba(OH)_2 and resorcinol on the properties of adhesives were studied. The properties of NaOH catalyzed phenol-formaldehyde(PF) adhesive, NaOH and Ba(OH)_2 compound catalyzed PF adhesive, NaOH and Ba(OH)_2 compound catalyzed phenol-resorcinol-formaldehyde(PRF) adhesive, and the prepared recombinant bamboo with three kinds of adhesives were compared. The experimental results show that NaOH and Ba(OH)_2 compound catalyst not only shortens the curing time of PF adhesive, but also guarantees the suitable water solubility of adhesive. After copolycondensation with resorcinol, the curing time of adhesive is further shortened, the water solubility is improved obviously, and the highest bonding strength is obtained. Infrared spectrum analysis shows that the reaction activity point of NaOH and Ba(OH)_2 compound catalyzed PRF adhesive will increase, so that both the curing temperature and curing enthalpy decrease.展开更多
