Abstract The synthesis of an adhesive composed fructose, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and bishexamethylene triamine was optimized. intended application the is production wood composites such as particleboard or medium-density fiberboard. Adhesives synthesized using HMF-rich precursors produced in continuous batch systems were compared regard to their tensile shear strength development; no signi...

The corner fire characteristics with two inert walls are compared against those one or combustible through a set of standard Single Burning Item (SBI) tests. study examines how the behavior is affected by flame spread over walls. In case wall, side Calcium Silicate (CS) panel. As for different materials have been tested, namely, plywood and Medium-Density Fiberboard (MDF) panels. results indica...

The effect of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma treatment was studied on the surface characteristics and coating performance transparent epoxy resin particleboard (PB) medium-density fiberboard (MDF). performed at three energies (10, 15, 20 kW) distances from nozzle 20, 30 mm). Analyzing samples by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy X-ray photoelectron (XPS) indicated change...

In this study, 4-mm-thick medium-density fiberboard (MDF) panels were heat-treated at 140 °C for 30 or 60 min and at 180 °C for 30 or 60 min. Then, 10-mm-thick lightweight honeycomb paperboards made from kraft paper (130 g/m, cell diameter of honeycomb, 14 mm; compression strength, 0.21 N/mm) were faced with the untreated and heat-treated MDF panels (thickness: 4 mm) using a two-component polyu...

Abstract Embedment properties are vital to timber structural designs, and many types of wood-based panels have been developed for diverse uses. Comprehensive systematic studies regarding the embedment limited. In this study, a jig that allows observation fracture processes is developed, monotonic tensile test conducted on plywood, oriented strandboard (both strong weak axes), particleboard, med...

A non-thermal plasma treatment generated in air at atmospheric pressure was used for surface modification of medium density fiberboard (MDF) substrate. Untreated and plasma-treated substrates were coated with a waterborne acrylic coating exposed to accelerated artificial weathering (AAW) interior mode. Plasma increased the free energy MDF by about 50%, which positively influenced on wettability...

The article presents theoretical analysis of machined surface roughness after sawing on circular saw and implementation fast Fourier transform (FFT) as a possible simple filtering method for out just the blade tooth influence roughness. Surface profile is represented signal that can be obtained sum complex periodic signals represent marks lateral movement due to structural wood combined with ma...

The effect of microencapsulation dihydrogen ammonium phosphate (MAP) in the generation fire-resistant coatings was studied presence tannins extracted from Pinus radiata. MAP encapsulated to avoid interaction with sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), which, upon contact fire, generates unwanted gases. Thus, a fireproof (or intumescent) protective film produced tannins. Microcapsules were polymerized melam...
