“…The dataset was calculated according to the functional unit ( Table 2). The adhesive consummation of WAL panels was calculated in laboratory in a previous study [35], while that for aluminum honeycomb panels was obtained of datasheets. The sanding and pressing parameters and their respective electricity consumption of each machine were calculated in laboratory according to their machine datasheet for each WAL panel.…”

“…The current paper aims to determine the importance of the LCA approach in the development process of WAL panels. The present attributional LCA study compare WAL panel manufacturing with different types of cores (MDF, OSB and plywood) and the aluminum honeycomb panel (AHP) manufacturing since their physical and mechanical properties were established as similar [35] according to a cradle-to-gate approach. The assessment of the environmental impacts of laminated panels through a LCA methodology will allow to identify the environmental hotspot of each panel throughout the manufacturing process and to explore the opportunities for environmental improvements of WAL panels.…”

The benefits of aluminum lamination in improving the physical and mechanical properties of wood-based composites is now well documented. This paper shows the contribution of life cycle assessment (LCA) as a tool to assess and compare the environmental footprint in the development of laminated panels. SimaPro 9.0 software, using Ecoinvent database was used to analyze the environmental impacts associated with the manufacturing of wood aluminum-laminated (WAL) panels and aluminum honeycomb panel (AHP). The impact 2002+ method was used to estimate environmental impacts. The LCA results show that the WAL panels manufacturing had a lower environmental impact than AHP manufacturing. In term of product, wood-based composites were the best choice as a core in laminated panel manufacturing. Wood-based composite manufacturing showed environmental advantages in all damage categories except in ecosystem quality. Aluminum alloy sheets manufacturing played an important role in the generation of environmental impacts for laminated panel development.

Influence of particle granulometry and panel composition on the physico‐mechanical properties of ultra‐low‐density hemp hurd particleboard

et al. 2023

This study investigated Australian hemp hurd (Cannabis sativa L., “Frog One”) as a lignocellulosic raw material for ultra‐low‐density hemp particleboard (ULHPB) with densities ranging from 213 to 309 kg/m3. The hurd was first milled and fractionated into three particle size categories, that is, fine (F), medium (M), and coarse (C). Twelve unique ULHPB variants were then fabricated comprising varying particle loadings from four particle size mixes, that is, 100% C, 100% M, 50%/50% CM, 25%/50%/25% CMF, and adhesive contents of bio‐epoxy (EPX), phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (PRF), and emulsifiable methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), respectively. The panel assessments, conducted in accordance with the Australian reconstituted wood‐based panels standard AS/NZS 1859.1 (2017), revealed a significant effect of particle dimension on most physico‐mechanical properties. Furthermore, the resination method and pressing temperature controlled post‐cure panel expansion and additional panel characteristics. Notably, MDI‐ULHPB exhibited drastically different behavior and properties compared to EPX and PRF equivalents, demonstrating greater bending strength, stiffness, screw withdrawal strength, and dimensional stability. Importantly, all MDI variants conformed to the 15% thickness swelling limit for moisture resistant particleboard. Surface lamination of MDI‐bonded ULHPB with sheets of aluminum, Masonite, and Kraft liner significantly improved the inherently low flexural properties, suggesting the potential suitability of ULHPB as a core layer in lightweight sandwich composite panels. The integration of agricultural by‐products, such as hemp hurd, into engineered building materials presents a promising opportunity to mitigate the depletion of finite timber resources and aligns well with circular economy principles.Highlights Utilizing agricultural residue as sustainable raw material in building products. Hemp hurd enables ultra‐low‐density particleboard with thermosetting resins. Coarse particle size mix enhances mechanical performance in panels. Panel characteristics controlled by resination method and pressing temperature. Lamination enhances functionality of lightweight hemp hurd sandwich panel.
