  • Copper compounds for durable composites : effects on material properties

    Creator:
    Vidrine, Cheney L.
    Abstract:
    The effects of incorporation of selected biocides on physical and mechanical properties of aspen strandboard were assessed using five copper-based preservatives or zinc borate at three retention levels. Tebuconazole or 4,5-dichloro-2-N-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (DCOI) were added as co-biocides to selective copper-based treatments. Mold box tests showed that only panels treated with DCOI...

  • Investigation of Styrene-Free Unsaturated Polyester Resins for Fiber-Reinforced Composites

    Creator:
    Wu, Yili
    Abstract:
    Most of existing commercial unsaturated polyester (UPE) resins are typically composed of a UPE and a high amount of highly volatile, flammable, and toxic styrene. The emission of hazardous styrene in the handling of the UPE resins and the preparation and use of fiber-reinforced UPE composites poses severe hazards to...
