The reactant was co-condensed with formaldehyde to obtain liquefied wood-based resin. For this paper, we investigated the characterization of the resin and its application in molding material. The result shows that the basic properties of liquefied wood-based resin were satisfactory; the bonding strength of plywood prepared with liquefied Chinese fir and liquefied poplar resin can reach 1.54 and 1.00 MPa, respectively. The compression strengths of the molding material prepared with two kinds of liquefied wood resin were 73.01 and 73.58 MPa, almost the same as that of PF resin molding material. The limiting volume swelling of molding material made with liquefied Chinese resin and liquefied poplar resin were 8.5% and 8.3%, thickness swelling rates of water absorption were 3.3% and 4.2%, and the maximum weight ratios of water absorption were 25.9% and 26.2%, respectively. The soil burial test result shows that the weight loss rate of the molding materials made with liquefied Chinese resin and liquefied poplar resin were 8.3% and 9.1% and that of the PF resin molding material was 7.9%. After the soil internment test, the reduction ratio of compression strength of the two kinds of molding material achieved 16.9% and 17.7%, while that of the PF resin molding material was 15.4%. The test results of wood fungi inoculation on the three surfaces of the molding material indicate the breeding rate of molding material prepared with liquefied Chinese resin and liquefied poplar resin were at level 4 and that of PF resin molding material was at level 1 of the ISO standard.展开更多

The liquefied wood were reacted with formaldehyde to synthesize the liquefied wood-based resin. The factors affecting the resinification and the properties of new resin were investigated. The results show that the formaldehyde/liquefied wood molar ratio, reaction temperature, reaction time and sodium hydroxide/liquefied wood molar ratio have important influence on the resin characteristics. With the increase of formaldehyde/liquefied wood molar ratio, the yield of resin increases, and the flee phenol content of resins decreases, showing that the resinification of liquefied wood is more complete at higher formaldehyde/liquefied wood molar ratios. The reaction temperature on the viscosity of the liquefied resin has considerable effect; the viscosity of resin increased with increasing reaction temperature, and the amount of liquefied poplar resin increased more quickly than that of liquefied Chinese fir resin. The resinification time also has obvious influence on the viscosity of resin; the viscosity of liquefied poplar resin is more sensitive to resinification time compared with that of liquefied Chinese fir. The amount of sodium hydroxide can improve the water miscibility of liquefied wood resin. The optimum sodium hydroxide/liquefied wood molar ratio for preparation of liquefied wood-based resins exceeds 0.4.展开更多

The fast-growing poplar was modified by a vacuum-pressure impregnation method with three types of modification solutions composed of phe- nol-melamine-formaldehyde （PMF） co-condensed resin, diatomite, and 3-aminopropyl （diethoxy） methylsilane. We measured the weight percent gain （WPG）, bulking, leaching, anti-swelling efficiency （ASE）, wa- ter-repellent effectiveness （WRE）, and oxygen index of the modified specimens. All of the wood physical properties, which are beneficial for human uses, were significantly improved by the treatment. We improved various characteristics of wood and the oxygen index of poplar above 48.6% after the modification using diatomite and PMF co-condensed resin.展开更多

The structure of the product was determined by IR spectrometry. An aqueous solution of CHMG, melamine(MA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was compounded according to a certain molar ratio. After the wood samples were impregnated with the aqueous solution in certain condition, they were dried step by step, and were cured, then the amino resin flame retardants were obtained. We emphasized studying on the effects of the molar ratio of the three components to the flame retardancy. The oxygen index(OI) of the wood test samples and the leach resistance value(LRV) of the flame retardants were determined. While the molar ratio of CHMG: MA: PA was 5: 1: 6.5, and the loading agents ratio(RFR) was 1.92%, the OI of dahurian larch came up to 45, and the average of LRV was 49.59%. The results show that if the optimum molar ratio of CHMU: MA: PA is chosen and the wood is treated in special conditions, amino resin flame retardant with leach resistance to wood can be obtained.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

RH and SD were grinded and sieved into particles μm. The aim of this research work was to evaluate sawdust and rice husks as fillers for sustainable phenolic resin based WPCs. Therefore, we investigated the thermal stability of PR/RH and PR/SD WPCs then we studied and compared the tensile, flexural properties of PR/SD and PR/RH WPCs samples, as well as their dimensional stability after water absorption test. Furthermore, through ultraviolet light exposure, we evaluated the effects of photo-oxidation on the water stability and mechanical properties of PR/RH and PR/SD WPCs samples compared to unexposed ones. PR filled with SD presented better mechanical properties compared to PR/RH WPCs samples. However, PR/RH WPCs showed good mechanical properties, and better thermal resistance and better water repulsion capabilities compared to PR/SD WPCs samples. Although, long time UV exposure ended up lowering considerably the mechanical properties and water resistance of PR/SD and PR/RH WPCs, both RH and SD offer great added value as fillers for PR based WPCs;SD having better interactions with PR matrix compared to RH.展开更多
