In this research work, the vinyl acetate (VAc)/ VAE hybrid emulsion and polyvinyl acetate emulsion (PVAc) were effectively synthesized. Emulsions with various characteristics have been developed by adjusting the weight ratios between the vinyl acetate monomer and the VAE component. The impacts on the mechanical, thermal, and physical properties of the films were investigated using tests for pencil hardness, tensile shear strength, pH, contact angle measurement, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and viscosity. When 5.0 weight percent VAE was added, the tensile shear strength in dry conditions decreased by 18.75% after a 24-hour bonding period, the heat resistance decreased by 26.29% (as per WATT 91) and the tensile shear strength decreased by approximately 36.52% in wet conditions (per EN 204). The pristine sample’s results were also confirmed by the contact angle test. The interpenetrating network (IPN) formation in hybrid PVAc emulsion as primary bonds does not directly attach to PVAc and VAE chains. The addition of VAE reduced the mechanical properties (at dry conditions) and heat resistance as per WATT 91. Contact angle analysis demonstrated that PVAc adhesives containing VAE had increased water resistance when compared to conventional PVA stabilised PVAc homopolymer-based adhesives. When compared to virgin PVAc Homo, the water resistance of the PVAc emulsion polymerization was enhanced by the addition of VAE.展开更多

Currently, the addition of natural fillers in the wood adhesive is one of the most effective ways to enhance the performance of PVAc wood adhesive in highly moist conditions. Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) are strong renewable, bio-based material and has great potential in a reinforcement of the polymeric matrix. Hence, the present work investigates the applicability of microcrystalline cellulose incorporated 3% and 5% in situ emulsion polymerization PVAc wood adhesives. Effect on physical, thermal and mechanical properties was studied by viscosity, pH, contact angle measurement, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and pencil hardness test of films. Emulsions with different proportions of MCC were prepared and the shear strength of the applied adhesive on wood was measured. The viscosity of the adhesives was increased by increasing the concentration of MCC. The mechanical properties like tensile strength of adhesives with MCC were measured by universal tensile machine (UTM). Thermal stability was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The tensile shear strength demonstrates that MCC can improve bonding strength as compared to PVAc Homo based adhesive in the wet condition which was validated through a contact angle study. The hardness of PVAc films were also changed positively by the addition of MCC. Here, we studied the effect of the addition of different concentrations of MCC materials in situ polymerization of PVAc on their performance properties.展开更多

Recently, the addition of fillers in the wood adhesive is one of the most effective ways to enhance the performance of PVAc wood adhesive. Inorganic fillers have unique characteristics to improve the performance of adhesive, such as small size, high surface energy and surface hardness. Hence, the present work investigates the applicability of calcium carbonate and clay incorporated 3% in situ emulsion polymerization PVAc wood adhesive. Effect on physical, thermal and mechanical properties was studied by viscosity, pH, contact angle measurement, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and pencil hardness test of films. Emulsions with 3% calcium carbonate and 3% clay were prepared and the shear strength of the applied adhesive on wood was measured. The viscosity of the adhesives was reduced in the case of the addition of calcium carbonate and increased in the case of clay. The mechanical properties like tensile strength of adhesives with calcium carbonate and clay were measured by a universal tensile machine (UTM). Thermal stability was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The tensile shear strength demonstrates that clay can improve bonding strength as compared to calcium carbonate of PVAc adhesive in wet conditions. The hardness of PVAc films was also changed positively by the addition of calcium carbonate and clay. Thermal stability of PVAc was significantly improved as calcium carbonate and clay were added to PVAc. Here, we did a comparative study of the effect of the addition of calcium carbonate and clay filler materials in situ polymerization of PVAc on their different properties.展开更多

The research on alternate sources and chemicals has resulted in the usage of green materials. These biomaterials are sustainable sources, biodegradable, and are abundant in nature. The replacement of petrochemicals with biopolymers has gained much importance in this aspect. Conventionally, polyvinyl alcohol is employed as a protective colloid in polyvinyl acetate adhesive. Polyvinyl alcohol has the limitation of petroleum origin, is replaced by biopolymers. Starch being a biopolymer, has gained interest in replacing polyvinyl alcohol as a stabilizer. Cellulose has a low cost, and the most abundant biomaterial finds application as a reinforcing agent in conventional adhesives. Exploring cellulose as a stabilizer for polyvinyl acetate emulsion polymerization with reinforcement has created potential applicability of cellulose in adhesives. Surface hydroxyl groups in cellulose act as sites for functionalization, making it material for the adhesive sector. This review paper aims to showcase biomaterials, namely starch, and cellulose, in the adhesive field. A detailed review of cellulose as functional filler for polyvinyl acetate emulsion adhesives has been explained.展开更多

For UF and MF, most investigations are concerned with reducing free formaldehyde content;for PF, most studies focused on finding new alternative chemicals to replace phenol. These adhesives come under the Carcinogenic, Mutagenic, and Reprotoxic chemicals (CMR) category. Due to global energy issues and dependency on petroleum sources, the focus has shifted to look for alternative and renewable raw material sources for wood adhesives. Conventionally available wood adhesives are polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) stabilized, with drawbacks like poor water resistance, poor heat resistance, low-temperature workability, and it’s based on petroleum resources. Polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) is non-resistant to moisture polymer, and if such adhesive joints are exploited in a moist environment, its strength substantially decreases. Sufficiently moisture-resistant adhesive joints are obtained by modifying PVAc dispersion with special compounds like reactive comonomer, Silanes, and modified PVA. To improve the workability at low temperature, Vinyl acetate (VAc) is copolymerized with specific comonomers like butyl acetate without affecting the performance properties. Here, we aim to present an overview of the research trend of PVAc-based adhesives in the wood industry. The review summarizes the current state of research PVAc-based adhesives.展开更多

The mechanical properties, thermal properties and durability of EPS lightweight concrete were tested. The microstruetures of EPS lightweight concrete were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Vibration with pressure reduces the number of small cracks. The 180 d compressive strength and flexural strength increase obviously as a large amount of PVA was added. The mixed amount of PVA has no obvious influence on the thermal performance when it is not more than 10% of the cement. Vibration with pressure and surface modification of EPS beads by PVA improve the combination of EPS beads with cement stone and the mechanical properties of EPS lightweight concrete.展开更多

The major ra...Global energy issues and the reliance on hydrocarbon resources have resulted in the reduction of petroleum sources, and the focus of the chemical industries has shifted to substitute raw material sources. The major raw materials used in wood adhesives, such as hydrocarbons like polyvinyl acetate, would be gradually replaced by renewable natural polymers. Currently, polyvinyl alcohol has the limitation of petroleum origin, which is non-economical and it will be replaced by biopolymers. Conventionally available wood adhesive emulsions are colloid-like polyvinyl alcohol stabilized. Starch, being a naturally available polymer, has gained interest from researchers for replacing polyvinyl alcohol as a stabilizer. New research on sustainable, economical, biodegradable, renewable, and environmentally friendly starch grafted polyvinyl acetate emulsion that was synthesized by the graft polymerization of vinyl acetate monomer onto starch. However, starch grafted polyvinyl acetate emulsion-based adhesive’s properties, such as poor water resistance, weak adhesion, delayed drying rate and delayed setting speed, have resulted in limitations in its application as a wood adhesive. A detailed review of starch grafting on vinyl acetate and comonomers like acrylamides, and acrylic acid, and the addition of nano-fillers to enhance the water resistance and performance properties of sustainable adhesives has been explained.展开更多

PVAc is non-resistant to high humidity, and if such adhesive bonds are exploited in a highly humid environment, its strength substantially decreases. Sufficiently water-resistant adhesive bonds are achieved by modifying PVAc dispersion with special chemicals like acrylic acid (AA) and N-methylol acrylamide (NMA) as a co-monomer, Silanes, and ethylene modified PVA. The Lewis acids like aluminium chloride and aluminium nitrate are used as cross-linkers. So PVAc adhesives are classified as reactive and non-reactive glue. Application of non-reactive D1 (as per EN 204-205) and reactive D2 and D3 (as per EN 204-205) adhesives for bonding laminate on plywood is a regular practice in the Indian market. In summer time, Crack formation was seen in laminate bonded with reactive D2 and D3 adhesives in regions where the room temperature was above 45°C. However, if the same laminate substrates were bonded with non-reactive D1, no cracks were seen. To analyse the above phenomenon, we have done Dynamic mechanical analysis of non-reactive D1, reactive D2 and D3 adhesive.展开更多
