ADHESION STUDIES OF SCOTS PINE-POLYPROPYLENE BOND USING ABES
Injection moulded wood plastic composites (WPCs) are generally built up by wood in the shape of fibres or flour, mixed together with a thermoplastic matrix and a coupling agent. The …
ADHESION AND WETTING PROPERTIES OF CHEMICALLY AND THERMALLY MODIFIED WOOD
Wood is not very durable in long terms when is exploited outdoors. Its exposure to moisture and UV radiation leads to changes in measurements, shape and colour as well as …
Veneer modification with fire retardant chemicals
The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of potential fire retardant chemicals on veneer properties. Flammability is a great disadvantage of wood material in construction, but it …
Potential causes of the differences in wood bonding strength between soluble and insoluble soy protein fractions
Pure soy protein isolates (SPI), when used as plywood adhesives, can give commercially viable wet strength or no wet strength, depending on the processing of the protein. Therefore, we are …
Application of wood filled PLA on wood veneer by additive manufacturing technique
The application of plastic parts on the wood surface can be done by injection molding process or additive technique. While in injection moulding the plastic melt is applied pressurized, the …
