“…Therefore, it is possible to observe that the panels with the highest proportions of P. edulis (T1 and T2) did not reach a minimum difference of 20%, while the other treatments remained within the range of 20% to 35%. This phenomenon was similar to the study conducted by MARINHO et al (2013), on bamboo Dendrocalamus giganteus fiberboards, with a maximum and minimum density gradient greater than 20%.…”

This paper aimed to evaluate the technological properties of particleboards produced with particles of unconventional species, bamboo of the species Phyllostachys edulis, and of the genus traditionally used by the sector for the production of the particulate panels in Brazil, Pinus spp.The bamboo splints of 3 years old were collected in Frei Rogério, Santa Catarina, being transformed into particles in a mill hammer, while the particles of Pinus spp. were collected from the industrial process of MDP production in Bonet Madeiras e Papéis Ltda Company in Santa Cecília, Santa Catarina. The company used eight-year-old logs of P. taeda and P. elliottii from the thinning process, without distinction of the species. The experiment was composed of five compositions with mixing the bamboo and wood particles in different proportions ((T1)100:0%; (T2)75:25%; (T3)50:50%; (T4)25:75%; (T5)0:100%). The panels were produced nominal density of 700 kg / m³ and pressing cycle of 160ºC and 40 kgf/cm² for 8 minutes. Results reporting physical and mechanical properties of panels were evaluated through Analysis of Variance and Tukey´s Test at 95% probability. The results evidenced that bamboo particles presented potential for the production of particleboard. The most promising results were presented with the addition of 50% of bamboo in the panel composition (T3), mainly by means observed for dimensional stability, as for strength and stiffness. Values of internal bond presented significantly lower averages with the addition of more than 25% of bamboo.

“…FF-PAPI is foam, but epoxy composite is Solid core material. Compared with the flexural strength values of composites reinforced by kenaf bast fibers (28.4 MPa) and giant bamboo (9-11 MPa), which is reported by Ali et al [35] and Marinho et al [38], respectively. FF-PAPI/PR shows better properties than giant bamboo composites and similar properties to kenaf bast fibers composites.…”

Investigation of novel lightweight phenolic foam‐based composites reinforced with flax fiber mats

et al. 2016

Demand has been growing for natural fibers that are eco‐friendly, renewable, and show sustainable development during their service lifetime. In this study, a series of novel phenolic foam‐based composites, modified by polyaryl polymethylene isocyanate (PAPI), were synthesized and then reinforced with flax fiber mats. The structure and reactive behavior of PAPI and phenolic resin were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effect of formulation of PAPI:Resol‐type phenolic resin (PR) on the mechanical properties of the composites were studied. The results suggested that the impregnation of PAPI and PR into mats showed good mechanical properties, furthermore, PAPI:PR in a 3:1 ratio led to the best reinforced material with inner bonding, flexural, and impact strengths of 3.39, 25.91 MPa, and 3.88 kJ/m2, respectively. In addition, the morphology of the composites was observed using scanning electron microscopy. Thermal stability and flame retardancy were examined using thermogravimetric analysis and limiting oxygen index (LOI) tests. It was found that the composites exhibited good thermal stability and high char yields. The LOI value of the modified phenolic foam‐based composites decreased with increasing PAPI content, but it still remained at about 24%. POLYM.

“…The use of bagasse fibers in MDF panels showed that some properties exceeded the EN standards, except the thickness swelling values which were higher than requirements (Ashori et al, 2009). Physical and mechanical properties for MDF manufactured applying other types of wood and resins are also assessed in the works of Da Silva et al 2013and Marinhoa et al (2013) respectively, and important findings are established. There were other studies (Bektas et al, 2005;Taghiyari et al, 2016;etc), which were very relevant to the analysis of properties, either of particleboards or fiberboards made using specific and wood or under other effects, and good results in line with standards were established.…”

Application of African Couchgrass in Manufacturing of Medium Density Fiberboard

et al. 2020

Worldwide, the medium density fiberboard (MDF) materials have been extensively used for furniture as well as a normal building material. The MDF production is based on wood materials that are obtained from the tree cutting, and this process may conduct to gradual deforestation. Different works have shown the advantages of using other renewable biomass sources for MDF manufacturing. This study aimed at assessing the potential of using the African couchgrass, as one of worldwide available grass, and which has been one of the most worrying weeds for agriculture areas. The test with the manufactured MDF checked such material properties like density, moisture content, water absorption, and thickness swelling. The established results were 727.143 kg/m3, 5.81%, 9.18%, and 7.6% respectively. All those results are in the range of standard values recommended by ASTM D1037, and they give optimism for the application of couchgrass in the manufacturing of MDF. This new material was planned to be used as a partition component. Therefore, further studies should evaluate other important properties, like fire and sound resistance, while a proposal for potential replacement of the used industrial wood glue is also welcome.
