Development of wood composites from recycled fibres bonded with magnesium lignosulfonate
(2020)The potential of producing ecofriendly composites from industrial waste fibres, bonded with magnesium lignosulfonate, a lignin-based formaldehyde-free adhesive, was investigated in this work. Composites were produced in ... -
Eco-friendly, high-density fiberboards bonded with urea-formaldehyde and ammonium lignosulfonate
(2021)The potential of producing eco-friendly, formaldehyde-free, high-density fiberboard (HDF) panels from hardwood fibers bonded with urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin and a novel ammonium lignosulfonate (ALS) is investigated in ... -
The effect of partial substitution of polyphosphates by aluminium hydroxide and borates on the technological and fire properties of medium density fibreboard
(2022)Aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aluminium hydroxide and borates, separately or combined with ammonium polyphosphate (APP), upon the technological and fire properties of medium density fibreboard (MDF). Fire ... -
Furfurylation of tropical wood species with and without silver nanoparticles: Part II: Evaluation of wood properties
(2021)The purpose of the work was to assess the combined effect of furfurylation, along with the addition of silver nanoparticles (NPsAg), on the thermal stability, density, water absorption, hardness and biological durability ... -
Physical and mechanical properties of eco-friendly composites made from wood dust and recycled polystyrene
(2022)The development of alternative wood composites based on the use of waste or recycled materials can be beneficial due to over exploitation of natural resources. Under this frame, an option for the successful utilization of ... -
Technological properties and fire performance of medium density fibreboard (MDF) treated with selected polyphosphate-based fire retardants
(2020)The objective of the work was to evaluate the efficacy of two new polyphosphate-based fire retardants (FRs) and one commercial product named Siriono® on the fire performance and physical–mechanical properties of medium ...
