  • Utilization of ground peanut husk as an alternative fiber material for particleboard

    Creator:
    Newton, Jacob A.
    Abstract:
    This research examined the potential for using peanut husk as a fiber alternative to wood in the production of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) particleboard. MF resin was used to produce panels with one, three, six, nine or 12 percent resin contents. Modulus of Rupture (MOR), Modulus of Elasticity (MOE), Internal Bond (IB)...

  • Evaluation of new formaldehyde-free, soy flour-based wood adhesives for making particleboard

    Creator:
    Gu, Kai
    Abstract:
    Formaldehyde-based adhesives such as urea-formaldehyde (UF), phenol-formaldehyde (PF) are widely applied in wood-based composite industry. However, these adhesives are all petrochemical-based and could not sustain in a long term due to a limited reserve of oil and natural gas. Moreover, these adhesives emit carcinogenic formaldehyde in the production or use...
