  • Development of formaldehyde-free wood adhesives

    Creator:
    Peshkova, Svetlana
    Abstract:
    Wood adhesives are essential components of wood composites. At present, the commonly used wood adhesives, phenol-formaldehyde (PF) and urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins, are petroleum-based synthetic resins that may result in emission of formaldehyde in the production and use of wood composites. Because the world's oil reserves are naturally limited and formaldehyde...

  • Development and characterization of new formaldehyde-free soy flour-based adhesives for making interior plywood

    Creator:
    Huang, Jian
    Abstract:
    Formaldehyde-based adhesives such as urea-formaldehyde (UF) and phenol-formaldehyde (PF) adhesives dominate the current wood adhesive market. However, these adhesives are derived from petrochemicals and carcinogenic formaldehyde. In this study, we developed two formaldehyde-free adhesives based on abundant, renewable, and inexpensive soy flour (SF). The first adhesive was mainly composed of...
