Gluability of platen-dried Douglas-fir veneer

Creator:

Sandoe, Michael Dean

Abstract:

This study was undertaken to determine whether Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) veneer could be platen-dried and then sucessfully glued into two-ply parallel-laminated panels. A range of veneer thicknesses, platen temperatures and final dry moisture contents were examined. Thicknesses included were nominal 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 inches; platen temperatures...

Investigation of a new resin as an exterior adhesive to bond high moisture content veneers

Creator:

Clark, Randy Jon

Abstract:

A new carbohydrate-phenol based resorcinol resin (CPR resin) was synthesized by end capping a known carbohydrate-phenol based resole with resorcinol under basic reaction conditions. Synthetic parameters, such as duration of cook, pH, and the amount of resorcinol and formaldehyde were varied to produce resins with molecular weights (Mw) ranging from...

Image pre-processing algorithms for isolation of defects in Douglas-fir veneer

Creator:

Forrer, Johannes Barry

Abstract:

The goal of this research is to develop automatic techniques for identifying defects in Douglas-fir veneer. To achieve this goal, computer vision techniques, in particular image-processing, will be applied. Several pre-processing steps may be required to enhance images in making further analysis easier, faster, and more reliable. Pre-processing is often...
