Bonding kinetics of thermosetting adhesives plays an important role
within wood based composites during hot pressing, and in determining
appropriate processing schedules for the manufacture of composites. A
dynamic method has been developed to offer a direct means for
investigating physical transformations that occur during bond
formation, and the influence...
Thermo-hygro-rheology of wood-adhesive systems plays an important role during the hot pressing process of wood based composites. The principal objective of this research is to quantitatively study the thermo-hygro rheological characteristics of wood-adhesive systems used in such composites. This is with a view to providing material characteristics which may be...
