Carbon nanotubes and multifunctional silane additive as fillers in PF resin and their effect on the composite flammability
2023 - IRG/WP 23-30783
Adhesive bonds are the most readily modifiable and, at the same time, give the greatest scope for modification of components of lignocellulosic composites. A study of a manufactured lignocellulosic composite based on a phenol-formaldehyde resin and pine veneer with additives modifying the properties of the resin was made. The multifunctional commercial silicon oxide Protectosil 851 and multi-walle...

Effect of impregnation modification treatment on properties of Paraserianthes falcataria wood
2023 - IRG/WP 23-40966
Modification treatment can improve the properties of wood, particularly those of fast-growing species. Paraserianthes falcataria, also known as batai, is a fast-growing species with low wood density. This species has piqued the interest of those involved in industrial wood processing as a promising alternative for construction. The aim of this study is to improve the dimensional stability of batai...

Effect of incised pattern on flexural strength of CLT
2023 - IRG/WP 23-40993
As a study aimed at developing preservation methods suitable for CLT, investigations have been carried out using “deep penetration treatment”. This treatment method was originally developed as a treatment method for sawn lumber and glulam used as sill members. In the treatment, materials are incised using specially designed blades and immediately sprayed with an oil-based wood preservative. Th...

Elevated pressure hybrid wood modification: Synergistic effects on durability performance
2024 - IRG/WP 24-20725
The combination of different wood modification technologies to obtain improved performance is increasingly receiving attention in research. In this study, Scots Pine was impregnated with furfuryl alcohol (FFA) in pure aqueous 20, 40 and 60% solution strength without adding any catalyst. In a second step, the FFA was polymerized while simultaneously performing thermal modification in a closed syste...

Influence of the substitution of phenol with lignin cleavage products in phenol-formaldehyde impregnation resins for wood modification on the fungal decay resistance and impregnation depth
2024 - IRG/WP 24-30805
The impregnation modification of wood with phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resins increases the woods dimensional stability and resistance against fungal decay. However, to decrease the usage of non-renewable resources, the substitution of phenol has been a topic of scientific interest. Lignin is a currently underutilized resource with a chemical structure that contains phenolic units. For adhesive appli...
