Formaldehyde-free wood adhesives from soybean protein and lignin : development and characterization

Creator:

Liu, Yuan

Abstract:

Presently, the production of wood composites relies on the formaldehyde-based wood adhesives such as phenol-formaldehyde (PF) and urea-formaldehyde (UF). However, their dependence on exhaustible fossil fuels and the emission of carcinogenic formaldehyde prompt to develop an environmentally friendly adhesive from renewable natural resources. This work focuses on development and characterization...

Investigation of new compatibilizer systems for wood-polyethylene composites

Creator:

Geng, Yu

Abstract:

Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are one of the fastest-growing sectors of the wood composites industry. However, the strengths of WPCs are typically low because of the poor interfacial adhesion between hydrophilic wood and hydrophobic thermoplastics. A compatibilizer that can form bridges between wood and plastics is required to give WPCs desirable...

Improved interfacial adhesion in wood-plastic composites : Development of new compatibilizers

Creator:

Zhang, Cheng

Abstract:

In wood-plastic composites (WPCs) a compatibilizer is often used to improve the interfacial adhesion between the hydrophilic wood filler and the hydrophobic plastic matrix. At present, while the basic concepts of compatibilization are understood, the optimized chemical structures of an effective compatibilizer, including the ideal structures of the wood-binding domain...

Management of powder-post beetles, Dinoderus minutus F. in freshly cut bamboo

Creator:

Garcia, Carlos Manalo

Abstract:

The goal of this project was to develop an integrated pest management strategy for the control of a powder-post beetle (Dinoderus minutus F.). This species causes serious damage in Philippine bamboo. Developmental threshold and thermal constants were examined and natural enemies and ftmgi associated with beetles were investigated. Finally, the...
