“…Therefore, their use is of advantage since they offer a homogeneous structure which is of great importance for many general and specific purposes [3][4][5]. Composite manufacturing factories have always been confronted with some ongoing issues, such as the emission of formaldehyde, heat transfer to the core of the mat, vulnerability to vapor, and biological susceptibility to fungi and insects [6][7][8][9][10]. Moreover, numerous studies have been focused on the limitation of formaldehyde emission and on the improvement of the resin bond [11].…”

Wood-composite panel factories are in shortage of raw materials; therefore, finding new sources of fibers is vital for sustainable production. The effects of chicken feathers, as a renewable source of natural fibers, on the physicomechanical properties of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and particleboard panels were investigated here. Wollastonite was added to resin to compensate possible negative effects of chicken feathers. Only feathers of the bodies of chickens were added to composite matrix at 5% and 10% content, based on the dry weight of the raw material, particles or fibers. Results showed significant negative effects of 10%-feather content on physical and mechanical properties. However, feather content of 5% showed some promising results. Addition of wollastonite to resin resulted in the improvement of some physical and mechanical properties. Wollastonite acted as reinforcing filler in resin and improved some of the properties; therefore, future studies should be carried out on the reduction of resin content. Moreover, density functional theory (DFT) demonstrated the formation of new bonds between wollastonite and carbohydrate polymers in the wood cell wall. It was concluded that chicken feathers have potential in wood-composite panel production.

“…Biodegradation of wood by fungi and termites is a serious problem for wooden structures world-wide [15] . The alkaline copper quat (ACQ) [36] , boron-fluorine-chromium-arsenic (BFCA salts) [37] , copper azole (CA) [38] , copper chrome arsenate (CCA) [39] , chlorotalonil (CTL) [36] , copper-and zinc-salicylate [40] , quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) [41] , siloxane [42] , sodium fluoride (NaF) [43][44][45] , and zinc borate [46] have been used to protect wood against termite damage. Besides these, nanoparticles from zinc oxide (ZnO) [47,48] , CuO and B 2 O 3 [49] , and magnesium fluoride (MgF 2 ) [50] have provided promising levels of protec-tion.…”

In worldwide, the use of chemical pesticides to protect wood has been greatly restricted. In recent years, a large number of researchers devoted to the search for natural, safe and non-polluting bioactive chemical compounds from plants as an alternative to synthetic organic chemical preservative. In Chinese folk, tung oil can be used as paint for wooden furniture to protect them from pests. This study aimed to evaluate the chemical compositions of raw and heated tung oil and their activity against termite. In choice bioassays, weight loss of wood treated with 5% raw or heated tung oil after 4 weeks was significantly less than that of the control group. In no-choice bioassays, there was a significant difference in termite survival and wood weight loss on raw and heated tung oil-treated wood. When tung oil-treatment concentrations increased to 5%, wood weight loss was less than 10%. There was no significant difference in termite survival and wood weight loss between raw and heated tung oil-treated wood. Survival of termites in both tung oil wood treatments was significantly lower than that in the starvation control after 4 weeks. Raw and heated tung oil significantly improved the resistance of pine wood to termites, and have the potential for the development of natural wood preservatives.

“…To enable wood use on severe conditions of biological attacks (Bayatkashkoli et al 2016;, it is necessary to treat wood to provide protection and enhance its lifespan. The preservative treatments available are chromated copper arsenate (CCA), which is widely used on timber for houses (Ferro et al 2016;Freeman et al 2003) and considered toxic due to element arsenic, which is carcinogenic (Vidal et al 2015); and chromium copper boron (CCB) (Almeida et al 2019;Ferro et al 2016), less toxic than CCA and bring better mechanical properties to wood (Bertolini et al 2013).…”

Effect of CCB Treatment and Alternative Adhesive Content on Physical and Mechanical Performance of Particleboards

The present study aimed to characterize medium density particleboard manufactured with CCB treated particles of Pinus sp. wood specie and alternative mixed vegetal oil-base bicomponent polyurethane resin. For this, three different resin concentrations (10 %, 12 % and 15 %) were used in combination with the presence or absence of the CCB preservative, resulting in six distinct treatments. The particleboards were produced according the Brazilian Standard -NBR and evaluated according European standards -EN. The results met the requirements of NBR and EN. The technical feasibility of making panels with those materials used were proved and the quality of the product according to its performance were verified, indicating the possibility to use alternative bicomponent polyurethane resin from mix vegetal oil. Statistical analysis demonstrated that adhesive and preservative factors and the interaction between them were significant on physical and mechanical properties.
