Inorganic Pollutants in Recovered Wood from Slovenia and Boards Made of Disintegrated Wood

چکیده

Due to increasing demands on wood, recovered wood is becoming more and more important. It is mainly used for energetic purposes and for particle board production. This material was polluted with various chemicals (surface coatings, biocides, concrete residues, etc.) during service life. These chemicals causes difficulties at the end of service life. In order to elucidate presence of inorganic pollutants in Slovenian recovered wood, 30 specimens were collected on city Ljubljana dump/sorting site, and analysed with x-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF). Those values were compared to the concentration of inorganic elements in boards made of disintegrated wood collected in Slovenian market. In recovered wood, as well as in imported particle boards increased concentrations of the following elements was confirmed: Cl, Cr, Fe, Cu, Zn and Pb. This indicates that at lest part of contaminated recovered wood is used for production of some particle boards.

Nanotechnology in Wood-based Composite Panels

Wood is a naturally renewable material with both continuous and isolated pore systems. Wood-composite panels have the privilege of offering a homogeneous structure to be used as constructional and structural materials. However, its nature makes it susceptible to biological wood-deteriorating agents, water absorption and thickness swelling, fire, etc. Using nano-materials are very easy in the wo...

Acetylation of wood – A review

Wood is a porous three dimensional, hydroscopic, viscoelastic, anisotropic bio-polymer composite composed of an interconnecting matrix of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin with minor amounts of inorganic elements and organic extractives. Some, but not all, of the cell wall polymer hydroxyl groups are accessible to moisture and these accessible hydroxyls form hydrogen bonds with water. As the...
