A new method of making particleboard with a formaldehyde-free soy-based adhesive

Creator:: Prasittisopin, Lapyote
Abstract:: Particleboard is widely used for making bookshelf, furniture, cabinets and many other interior products. At present, particleboard is mainly produced with wood particles and urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins. The emission of carcinogenic formaldehyde in the production and use of particleboard has generated an urgent need for development of a formaldehyde-free wood...

Development and evaluation of oriented strandboard bonded with soy-based formaldehyde-free adhesives

Creator:: Schwarzkopf, Matthew John
Abstract:: Synthetic adhesives like phenol formaldehyde (PF) and isocyanates dominate the wood based structural panel market. The raw materials that makeup these adhesives are based on petroleum and natural gas. The sustainability and the continued success of the wood based structural panel industry will benefit from the development of alternative adhesives...

The effects of extractives and compatibilizers on the flexural properties of natural fiber-thermoplastic composites

Creator:: Saputra, Hartono A.
Abstract:: Natural fibers such as wood, flax, and hemp are frequently used as fillers in natural fiber-plastic composites (NFPCs). At present, wood fiber is the most commonly used filler in the production of wood-plastic composites (WPCs). The advantages of these fibers compared to conventional inorganic fibers such as glass fiber is...

System behavior of three-dimensional wood truss assemblies

Creator:: Limkatanyoo, Pranueng
Abstract:: The objective of this research is to use a three-dimensional (3D) analysis method to include 'system effects' directly in the design of light-frame roof truss assemblies. The goal of this study is to develop an improved and practical method to determine the structural performance of 3D roof truss assemblies used...

Development and characterization of new formaldehyde-free soy flour-based adhesives for making interior plywood

Creator:: Huang, Jian
Abstract:: Formaldehyde-based adhesives such as urea-formaldehyde (UF) and phenol-formaldehyde (PF) adhesives dominate the current wood adhesive market. However, these adhesives are derived from petrochemicals and carcinogenic formaldehyde. In this study, we developed two formaldehyde-free adhesives based on abundant, renewable, and inexpensive soy flour (SF). The first adhesive was mainly composed of...

New application of crystalline cellulose in rubber composites

Creator:: Bai, Wen
Abstract:: Rubber without reinforcement has limited applications. The strength of reinforced rubber composites can be ten times stronger than that of unreinforced rubbers. Therefore, rubber composites are widely used in various applications ranging from automobile tires to seals, valves, and gaskets because of their excellent mechanical elastic properties. Silica and carbon...

Development and evaluation of novel coupling agents for kenaf-fiber-reinforced unsaturated polyester composites

Creator:: Ren, Xiaofeng
Abstract:: Natural fibers are gaining popularity as reinforcement materials for thermoset resins over the last two decades. Natural fibers are inexpensive, abundant, renewable and environmentally friendly. Kenaf fibers are one of the natural fibers that can potentially be used for reinforcing unsaturated polyester (UPE). As a polymer matrix, UPE enjoys a...

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...

Development and use of satellite-derived sea-surface temperature data for the nearshore North Pacific and Arctic Oceans : temperature pattern analysis and implications for climate change at ecoregional scale

Creator:: Payne, Meredith C.
Abstract:: The quantification and description of sea surface temperature (SST) is critically important because it can influence the distribution, migration, and invasion of marine species; furthermore, SSTs are expected to be affected by climate change. Recent research indicates that there has been a warming trend in ocean temperatures over the last...

Thermal Processing of Injection-Molded Silicon Carbide

Creator:: Chinn, Richard E.
Abstract:: Silicon carbide is an important and versatile nonoxide ceramic. Powder injection molding (PIM) is a method of high-speed fabrication of complex near-net shapes of SiC and other powders. Green micro-machining (GMM) is used to extend the shaping capability of green ceramics and powder metallurgy to smaller feature sizes. Debinding--removal of...
