“…VTCS could form crosslinks and thus reduced the shrinkage and swelling caused by the water and as a result dimensional stability would be improved. Treatment of Scots pine with a mixture of two alkoxysilanes increased the ASE was reported in the literature 36 . GMA treatment remarkably improved the anti-swell efficiency of styrene impregnated rubber wood 2 .…”

This study concerns the preparation and characterization of wood polymer nanocomposites based on impregnation of styrene acrylonitrile co-polymer-nanoclay intercalating system in presence of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), a cross linking agent, and vinyl trichloro silane (VTCS) as additives into Simul (Bombex ceiba, L.), a soft wood. The effect of nanoclay and VTCS on the properties of the resultant wood polymer nanocomposites (WPNC) has been evaluated. FTIR spectroscopy shows the interaction among wood, polymers, GMA, nanoclay and VTCS. The penetration of polymer and nanoclay into the wood cell wall is supported by SEM study. The distribution of nanoclay in the SAN polymer matrix present within the wood cell wall has been evidenced by TEM study. TGA results show an improvement in the thermostability of the resultant composites. The inclusion of VTCS enhances the self extinguishing behaviour of the WPNC as revealed by limiting oxygen index (LOI) test. Due to treatment, the resultant WPNC exhibits an improvement in all the properties like water repellancy, dimensional stability, hardness, flexural, tensile and thermal stability compared to untreated wood.

Abstract:The known method of wood modification by epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) has a limiting practical application due to the rapid polymerization of ELO in the presence of acetic acid (AA) needed as a catalyst. The present study was designed to develop an alternative method by means of a two-step process to avoid the rapid polymerization. The treatment options were tested on Scots pine sapwood, with the dimensional stability (DS) of the treated samples in focus. The new method provided an anti-swelling efficiency (ASE) in the range of 40-57%, which was even better than the thermally modified (TM) reference samples with 40% ASE. The developed two-step process is a feasible and practical approach for ELO treatment of wood.

“…Plants produce essential oils (De Alwis et al, 2009;López et al, 2007), alkaloids (Holmes et al, 2008), enzymes, lignin (Panov and Terziev, 2009), terpenoids (Bednarek and Osbourn, 2009;Collado et al, 2007;De Alwis et al, 2009;Dutta et al, 2009), or tannins (Exarchos and Given, 1977;Given, 1984;Given et al, 1983) as protection against microbes. Fungi alter their environment by producing antibiotics (Bose, 1953;Holding and Franklin, 1965;Waksman, 1944;Wallace and Dickinson, 1978;among others) or by re-using terpenoids against other fungal species (Rikkinen and Poinar, 2000).…”
