The effects of molar ratios of isobutyraldehyde to formaldehyde (n(I)/n(F)) and aldehyde to urea (n(A)/n(U)) on the yield, hydroxyl value (vs KOH) and softening point of the resin were investigated. The structure of the resin was characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The results show that when the molar ratio of urea to isobutyraldehyde to formaldehyde (n(U)/n(I)/n(F)) is 1.0/3.0/3.0, the yield UIF resin is 67.1%, and the softening point and hydroxyl value are 88 ℃ and 37 mg/g, respectively. The FT-IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR results show that the lactam is formed by aminomethylation from urea, isobutyraldehyde, and formaldehyde.展开更多

Although the microstructure of this resin has been examined at high resolution by field-emission scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has thus far not been used, perhaps because of difficulties in ultrathin sectioning this resin in cured (polymerized) state. In the technical note presented here, a novel sample preparation method is described which enabled us to examine the microstructural morphology of UF resin by transmission electron microscopy in ultrathin sections, revealing the presence of spherical particles within the resin. Our initial attempt to ultrathin section the resin directly was not successful as it was too brittle to trim blocks for sectioning. Then, we developed a sample preparation technique that involved impregnation ofPinus radiatawood tissues with the UF resin, and then embedding of resin impregnated wood tissues with Spurr’s low viscosity embedding medium, which has been widely employed in plant and wood ultrastructure work. The TEM images illustrated and the information on the microstructural morphology of the UF resin presented are based on this novel sample preparation approach.展开更多

The process has three steps in which nanosized tungsten particles were first coated with PF, then the precursors were carburized at 950℃, and finally the carburized powders were treated in flowing wet hydrogen atmosphere at 940℃ to remove the uncombined carbon. The obtained powders were characterized using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and combustion-gas-volume method. The results indicated that single-phase WC could be synthesized using excessive PF as carburizer at a much lower temperature compared with using mixed carbon black. After wet hydrogen treating, the mean size of the obtained WC particles was 94.5 nm and the total carbon content was 6.18 wt.%.展开更多

It is found that the prepared carbon materials still maintain the typical spherical shapes after the activation, and have highly developed ultra-microporosity with uniform pore size, indicating that almost the activation takes place in the interior of the polymer spheres. The narrow-distributed ultra-micropores are attributed to the "in-situ homogeneous activation"effect produced by the mono-dispersed potassium ions as a form of -OK groups in the bulk of polymer spheres. The CS-1 sample prepared under a KOH/resins weight ratio of 1 shows a very high COcapture capacity of 4.83 mmol/g and good CO/Nselectivity of7-45. We believe that the presence of a welldeveloped ultra-microporosity is responsible for excellent COsorption performance at room temperature and ambient pressure.展开更多

Tan-nin-phenol formaldehyde (TPF) and tannin formaldehyde-phenol formaldehyde (TFPF) resins that synthesized in this study were evaluated as adhesive material for cellulosic fibers by study the mechanical properties of the composite sheets .The results show that the substituting of (PF) with tannin at (10 –50)% W/W give resins with mechanical properties comparable or near to those of pure (PF) , where the tensile strength at break (Tb) ranging from 15.15 Mpa to 22.27 Mpa as compared with 17.6 Mpa for pure (PF);while the impact strength properties (Im) of composites sheets increased with increased the (T) percents which were about 5.16 KJ/m2 for (TPF – 10%) and 7.21 KJ/m2 for (TPF - 50%) .On the other hand modification of (T) to tannin formaldehyde resin (TF) appear less performance at the results of this study , this effect probably to low penetration of (TFPF) resins between the small voids of cellulose fibers when soaked it in resin solutions. In general the results of this study indicate that the Eucalyptus tannin can be used for par-tial substitution of (PF) to produce resins with feasible mechanical properties and can be used in some applications of (PF) resins.展开更多

At the temperatures above 100°C in the presence of hardener, this resin undergoes cross-linking reaction and the formation of three dimensional cross linked structures takes place and bonding of wood particles in a hot press [1]. UF powder resins show high reactivity and good performance in the production and by their low price;however they lack in water resistance of the hardened resin [2]. Urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins are the most important type of adhesive resins for the production of wood based panels but process-ability and curing behavior of urea formaldehyde resin depended on various factors related to resin properties, types of wood and their properties, amount & type of catalyst, types and amount of polymers addition and environmental conditions [3]. This factor decides the process-ability of UF resin based composite during manufacturing of plywood, particle board and fiberboard. In this review paper, various factors affecting gel time and process-ability of UF resin based wood composite are reviewed.展开更多

Its composition of pyrolysates has been analyzed. Several compounds, especially benzene, toluene, p-xylene could only be formed above 500550℃. However, peak intensities for some phenol derivatives were decreased at the higher temperature. During pyrolysis, for thermo-setting phenol formaldehyde resins, polymeric chain scissions take place as a successive removal of the monomer units from the polymeric chain. The chain scissions are followed by secondary reactions, which leads to a variety of compounds. Addition reactions can also take place among the double-bond compounds during pyrolysis.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

Then the magnesia carbon bricks were prepared using the LPF as binder. Different process conditions of LPFs such as calcium lignosulfonate additions( 10%,20%,30%,40% and 50%,in mass,the same hereinafter),catalyzer additions( extra added,1%,2%,3%,4% and 5%) and reaction times( 1,1. 5,2,2. 5 and 3 h) were investigated. Effects of prepared LPFs on properties of magnesia carbon bricks( baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h) were researched in order to modify the synthesizing conditions of LPFs. Cold physical properties and hot modulus of rupture of magnesia carbon bricks bonded by LPF and by traditional PF after baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h and fired at 1 200 ℃ for 3 h were compared,respectively. The results show that the optimal synthesizing conditions of LPF for preparing magnesia carbon bricks are 30% calcium lignosulfonate,1% catalyzer,and 2 h reaction time. The magnesia carbon bricks bonded by the optimal LPF achieve:( 1) the bulk densities 2. 84 g · cm- 3and 2. 82g·cm- 3,apparent porosities 9. 6% and 14. 6%,moduli of rupture 17. 8 MPa and 6. 4 MPa,crushing strengths72. 3 MPa and 48. 7 MPa,after baked at 200 ℃ and1 200 ℃,respectively;( 2) the hot modulus of rupture7. 3 MPa after fired at 1 400 ℃. The above properties are better than those of the magnesia carbon brick bonded by PF.展开更多

The c-PHDT/GO/PF composites were prepared by blending, rolling and compression molding techniques. Then, the as-prepared samples were characterized by FTIR, Raman, XRD, TGA and POM to obtain information on their structures and properties. After that, the effects of c-PHDT/GO content on the mechanical properties, friction performance and dynamic mechanical performance of c-PHDT/GO/PF composites were studied by Mechanical and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) methods. Also, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used for the characterization of wear and fracture surface morphology. The results revealed that the reinforcing effect of c-PHDT/GO was significant as a considerable enhancement on the mechanical performance of c-PHDT/GO/PF composite as compared to pure phenol-formaldehyde composites was observed: the impact strength, bending modulus and bending strength increased from 1.63 kJ/m2, 8.61 GPa and 41.55 MPa to 2.31 kJ/m2, 10.16 GPa and 54.40 MPa respectively at the c-PHDT/GO content = 0.75%. Moreover, the initial storage modulus increased by 28.4%, while the wear mass loss decreased by 17.8%. More importantly, the reinforcement by c-PHDT/GO was further enhanced as compared to GO/PF and p-PHDT/GO/PF composites, the impact strength of c-PHDT/GO/PF composite increased by 27.6% and 11.1%, the bending strength increased by 11.8% and 7.6%, the initial storage modulus increased by 16.2% and 4.2% and the mass loss due to wear decreased by 12.7% and 8.8%, respectively. Based on these results, we can conclude that the surface modification of GO by poly(hexanedithiol), which includes synergistic effect by c-PHDT and GO, improves the interfacial adhesion between GO and the resin matrix, thus reinforcing the composites.展开更多

Triethanolamine and dimethylamine were added to modify the melamine-formaldehyde resin,respectively.The mechanism of the cationized resin was explored and the possible chemical reactions were deduced. It was concluded that,with the use of triethanolamine,the most optimum product was obtained by hydroxymethylation for 30 min with a temperature of 85℃ and p H of 9. 0 where n( melamine) ∶ n( formaldehyde) ∶ n( methanol) ∶ n( triethanolamine) was 100 ∶ 330 ∶ 450 ∶ 15. With the combined use of dimethylamine and methanol,the optimal product was acquired by condensation for 30 min at a temperature of 50℃ and p H of 2. 0 at melamine, formaldehyde, methanol, and dimethylamine molar ratio of100∶ 330∶ 350∶ 20. With the only use of dimethylamine,the optimal product was obtained by condensation at melamine,formaldehyde,dimethylamine molar ratio of 100∶ 330∶ 10. The wet tensile strength of fruit-bagging paper was improved by adding cationized melamine-formaldehyde resin. The zeta potential,charge density,and conductivity of the melamine-formaldehyde resin were also studied.展开更多

Tan-nin-phenol formaldehyde (TPF) and tannin formaldehyde-phenol formaldehyde (TFPF) resins that synthesized in this study were evaluated as adhesive material for cellulosic fibers by study the mechanical properties of the composite sheets .The results show that the substituting of (PF) with tannin at (10 –50)% W/W give resins with mechanical properties comparable or near to those of pure (PF) , where the tensile strength at break (Tb) ranging from 15.15 Mpa to 22.27 Mpa as compared with 17.6 Mpa for pure (PF);while the impact strength properties (Im) of composites sheets increased with increased the (T) percents which were about 5.16 KJ/m2 for (TPF – 10%) and 7.21 KJ/m2 for (TPF - 50%) .On the other hand modification of (T) to tannin formaldehyde resin (TF) appear less performance at the results of this study , this effect probably to low penetration of (TFPF) resins between the small voids of cellulose fibers when soaked it in resin solutions. In general the results of this study indicate that the Eucalyptus tannin can be used for par-tial substitution of (PF) to produce resins with feasible mechanical properties and can be used in some applications of (PF) resins.
文摘Urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin presents the most utilized adhesive system in the manufacture of plywood, particleboard and fiberboard. At the temperatures above 100°C in the presence of hardener, this resin undergoes cross-linking reaction and the formation of three dimensional cross linked structures takes place and bonding of wood particles in a hot press [1]. UF powder resins show high reactivity and good performance in the production and by their low price;however they lack in water resistance of the hardened resin [2]. Urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins are the most important type of adhesive resins for the production of wood based panels but process-ability and curing behavior of urea formaldehyde resin depended on various factors related to resin properties, types of wood and their properties, amount & type of catalyst, types and amount of polymers addition and environmental conditions [3]. This factor decides the process-ability of UF resin based composite during manufacturing of plywood, particle board and fiberboard. In this review paper, various factors affecting gel time and process-ability of UF resin based wood composite are reviewed.

文摘Pyrolysis of phenol formaldehyde resin has been investigated by Pyrolysis Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy at the different temperatures from 500℃ to 750℃. Its composition of pyrolysates has been analyzed. Several compounds, especially benzene, toluene, p-xylene could only be formed above 500550℃. However, peak intensities for some phenol derivatives were decreased at the higher temperature. During pyrolysis, for thermo-setting phenol formaldehyde resins, polymeric chain scissions take place as a successive removal of the monomer units from the polymeric chain. The chain scissions are followed by secondary reactions, which leads to a variety of compounds. Addition reactions can also take place among the double-bond compounds during pyrolysis.

文摘In order to reduce the curing temperature, shorten the curing time of phenol-formaldehyde(PF) resin adhesive, and ensure the good water-solubility, NaOH and Ba(OH)_2 were used as compound catalysts. 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.

文摘In order to reduce the cost and to improve the low temperature bonding strength of phenol formaldehyde resin( PF),the lignin modified phenol formaldehyde resin( LPF) was synthesized using calcium lignosulfonate as a partial replacement of phenol,and sodium hydroxide as catalyzer. Then the magnesia carbon bricks were prepared using the LPF as binder. Different process conditions of LPFs such as calcium lignosulfonate additions( 10%,20%,30%,40% and 50%,in mass,the same hereinafter),catalyzer additions( extra added,1%,2%,3%,4% and 5%) and reaction times( 1,1. 5,2,2. 5 and 3 h) were investigated. Effects of prepared LPFs on properties of magnesia carbon bricks( baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h) were researched in order to modify the synthesizing conditions of LPFs. Cold physical properties and hot modulus of rupture of magnesia carbon bricks bonded by LPF and by traditional PF after baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h and fired at 1 200 ℃ for 3 h were compared,respectively. The results show that the optimal synthesizing conditions of LPF for preparing magnesia carbon bricks are 30% calcium lignosulfonate,1% catalyzer,and 2 h reaction time. The magnesia carbon bricks bonded by the optimal LPF achieve:( 1) the bulk densities 2. 84 g · cm- 3and 2. 82g·cm- 3,apparent porosities 9. 6% and 14. 6%,moduli of rupture 17. 8 MPa and 6. 4 MPa,crushing strengths72. 3 MPa and 48. 7 MPa,after baked at 200 ℃ and1 200 ℃,respectively;( 2) the hot modulus of rupture7. 3 MPa after fired at 1 400 ℃. The above properties are better than those of the magnesia carbon brick bonded by PF.

文摘In this paper, the preparation of graphene oxide was achieved by Hummers method and the surface modification was achieved by poly(hexaneditiol), which was a synthetic thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer. The c-PHDT/GO/PF composites were prepared by blending, rolling and compression molding techniques. Then, the as-prepared samples were characterized by FTIR, Raman, XRD, TGA and POM to obtain information on their structures and properties. After that, the effects of c-PHDT/GO content on the mechanical properties, friction performance and dynamic mechanical performance of c-PHDT/GO/PF composites were studied by Mechanical and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) methods. Also, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used for the characterization of wear and fracture surface morphology. The results revealed that the reinforcing effect of c-PHDT/GO was significant as a considerable enhancement on the mechanical performance of c-PHDT/GO/PF composite as compared to pure phenol-formaldehyde composites was observed: the impact strength, bending modulus and bending strength increased from 1.63 kJ/m2, 8.61 GPa and 41.55 MPa to 2.31 kJ/m2, 10.16 GPa and 54.40 MPa respectively at the c-PHDT/GO content = 0.75%. Moreover, the initial storage modulus increased by 28.4%, while the wear mass loss decreased by 17.8%. More importantly, the reinforcement by c-PHDT/GO was further enhanced as compared to GO/PF and p-PHDT/GO/PF composites, the impact strength of c-PHDT/GO/PF composite increased by 27.6% and 11.1%, the bending strength increased by 11.8% and 7.6%, the initial storage modulus increased by 16.2% and 4.2% and the mass loss due to wear decreased by 12.7% and 8.8%, respectively. Based on these results, we can conclude that the surface modification of GO by poly(hexanedithiol), which includes synergistic effect by c-PHDT and GO, improves the interfacial adhesion between GO and the resin matrix, thus reinforcing the composites.

文摘In this work, melamine-formaldehyde resin was cationized by adding modifiers so that the fibers closely bonded to improve their usability and the wet strength of paper was greatly improved. Triethanolamine and dimethylamine were added to modify the melamine-formaldehyde resin,respectively.The mechanism of the cationized resin was explored and the possible chemical reactions were deduced. It was concluded that,with the use of triethanolamine,the most optimum product was obtained by hydroxymethylation for 30 min with a temperature of 85℃ and p H of 9. 0 where n( melamine) ∶ n( formaldehyde) ∶ n( methanol) ∶ n( triethanolamine) was 100 ∶ 330 ∶ 450 ∶ 15. With the combined use of dimethylamine and methanol,the optimal product was acquired by condensation for 30 min at a temperature of 50℃ and p H of 2. 0 at melamine, formaldehyde, methanol, and dimethylamine molar ratio of100∶ 330∶ 350∶ 20. With the only use of dimethylamine,the optimal product was obtained by condensation at melamine,formaldehyde,dimethylamine molar ratio of 100∶ 330∶ 10. The wet tensile strength of fruit-bagging paper was improved by adding cationized melamine-formaldehyde resin. The zeta potential,charge density,and conductivity of the melamine-formaldehyde resin were also studied.
