Abstract: Three novel curing agents ( I , II , and III) were synthesized
from epichlorohydrin and ammonium hydroxide.
The combinations of soy flour (SF) with one of the curing
agents (SF- I , SF- II , and SF- III ) were investigated as adhesives
for making interior plywood. Water...
In this study, triglycidylamine (TGA) was synthesized and evaluated as a crosslinking agent for soy flour (SF) for making five-ply plywood from yellow poplar. Glycerol polyglycidyl ether (GPE) and trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether (TTE) were also investigated as crosslinking agents for SF as adhesive for plywood. The plywood panels bonded with...
