X-ray computerized tomography of particleboard to predict through-thickness density profile

Creator:: Gao, Hong
Abstract:: Particleboard is a widely used composite panel product consisting of consolidated wood particles and adhesive. On a macro level the panel appears to be homogeneous, however, its density varies both throughout the plane of the panel as well as through its thickness. Of concern for this thesis is the through-thickness...

The influence of various resin parameters on the physical properties of oak flakeboard

Creator:: Jay, Gregory Lynn
Abstract:: The substantial increase in resin costs due to the recent energy crisis, increased public awareness to the problem of free formaldehyde from boards bonded with urea-formaldehyde resins, and a projected increase in the production of exterior board have emphasized the need for new and substitute adhesive systems. One new development...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Dimensional stability and water adsorption of flakeboard and particleboard as related to furnish geometry, board specific gravity, and resin type

Creator:: Vital, Benedito Rocha
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Bark as a supplemental source for wood furnish in particleboard

Creator:: Wisherd, Kurt Douglas
Abstract:: Competition for the conventional supply of wood residue utilized by the particleboard industry is increasing. Utilization of low quality residues by the pulp and paper industry, new sawmill and plywood recovery techniques, and the growing practice of converting low quality residues into steam and electrical power have all cut into...

On the phenomena of fracture in particle-board

Creator:: Ilcewicz, Larry Bert
Abstract:: Nonlocal theories of continuum mechanics are used to model the fracture behavior of particleboard in tension perpendicular to the plane of the board. Classical theories of fracture are examined in comparison to a nonlocal crack solution which has removed the stress singularity at the crack tip. With the removal of...

Resin efficiency : the effect of varying resin distributions upon resin performance in particleboard

Creator:: Hill, Michael Douglas
Abstract:: Past research has implied that differences in blender performance between commercial and laboratory particleboard blenders may not be attributed to resin distribution between screen fractions, as is commonly believed in the industry today, but to which particles within a screen fraction have resin and which do note To test this,...

Risk management in particleboard production system design : a simulation study of the stochastic optimization problem

Creator:: Velazquez, Sergio Serrano
Abstract:: Effects of stochastic variations of parameters in the planning and design of a particleboard production system are studied. The solution obtained from a linear deterministic optimization model is compared against both the solution derived from the traditional stochastic programming techniques and the distribution of optimal objective function values obtained from...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Description There are presently two major processes for making particle- board: the flat-press process and

On the fracture mechanics of oriented flakeboard

Creator:: Lei, Young-kong
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: rate, board density, flake dimensions, and loading speed are also experimentally evaluated in terms

Bonding wood particle composites with foamed adhesive

Creator:: Watters, Allan Eugene
Abstract:: The quality and cost of wood particle composites are substantially determined by how the adhesive that bonds the composite is distributed on the particles. Distribution of the adhesive is controlled by the method of application. Currently the adhesive is applied by spraying it onto the particles. It was hypothesized that...

Economic efficiency of the particle board industry of Oregon

Creator:: Johnson, Walter W.
Abstract:: This study consists of an evaluation of economic efficiency in the particleboard industry of Oregon between 1958 and 1970. Measures of efficiency included aggregate capital and labor use in the production process, relative economies of scale, and relative technological efficiencies of individual particleboard plants. The rapid growth of the industry...
