Properties of Plywood Panels Composed of Thermally Densified and Non-Densified Alder and Birch Veneers

Pavlo Bekhta et al.

Summary: Ukrainian companies mainly use birch in plywood manufacturing, while black alder and other species are not widely used due to their poorer properties. This research aimed to evaluate the influences of different lay-up schemes on plywood properties by developing plywood panels with two wood species and two types of veneer treatments. The study showed that proper lay-up schemes, such as using black alder non-densified veneers in the core layers and birch densified veneers in the outer layers, can significantly improve the bending strength, modulus of elasticity, and shear strength of the plywood.

Biological Deterioration and Natural Durability of Wood in Europe

Juan A. Martin et al.

Summary: In recent years, the demand for wood has increased globally, but the production of woods with low natural durability is often insufficient to meet this demand. Wood-decay fungi are the main agents that deteriorate wood, followed by saproxylic beetles, termites, and marine molluscs and crustaceans. The natural durability of wood is determined by factors such as the composition of lignin, xylem anatomy, heartwood extractives, and moisture regulation components, which affect the resistance of wood to wood-destroying organisms.

Thermal and Gluing Properties of Phenol-Based Resin with Lignin for Potential Application in Structural Composites

Danilo Soares Galdino et al.

Summary: Using Kraft lignin, lignin-based phenol-formaldehyde (LPF) resins were synthesized as a potential replacement for petrochemical-based adhesives. The LPF resins showed improved properties compared to the control phenol-formaldehyde resin (PF) in terms of viscosity, gel time, shear strength, and curing behavior. However, the addition of EKL in PF reduced its thermal stability.

Effects of Heat Treatment under Different Pressures on the Properties of Bamboo

Dan Li et al.

Summary: In this experiment, the effects of different heat treatment pressures on the equilibrium moisture content, dimensional stability, mechanical properties, and chemical composition of bamboo were investigated. The results showed that the equilibrium moisture content of heat-treated bamboo decreases with increasing treatment pressure, while the dimensional stability increases. The optimal heat treatment pressure for bamboo is 0.1 MPa, which significantly improves the bending strength and longitudinal compressive strength compared to the control group. Various physical and chemical transformations were observed during the heat treatment process.

Characterization of plywood made from heat-treated rubberwood veneers bonded with melamine urea formaldehyde resin

Aujchariya Chotikhun et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the properties of plywood made from thermally treated rubberwood veneers at different temperatures. Rotary-peeled veneers were treated at 160, 170, 180, and 190°C under 1 bar pressure. The plywood's dimensional stability and mechanical properties were assessed, showing improved stability and darkening with higher treatment temperatures. Plywood treated at 170°C and 180°C exhibited the highest strength, but beyond that temperature, the mechanical strength declined. Heat treatment at temperatures ranging from 160 to 180°C showed potential to enhance plywood properties.

Preparation and Characterization of Heat-Treated Douglas Fir Wood with Core-Shell Structure

Tao Ding et al.

Summary: Wood heat treatment is an effective method to improve the dimensional stability and biological durability of wood, although it may result in reduced mechanical properties. The study reveals that the heat-treated wood has a darkened, hydrophobic and rigid shell, while the inner core remains largely unchanged. The initial moisture content of the wood plays a crucial role in controlling the temperature difference between the core and the shell during treatment.

Moisture-Related Shrinkage Behavior of Wood at Macroscale and Cellular Level

Yufa Gao et al.

Summary: Wooden structures are prone to shrinkage cracks due to wood moisture sensitivity. Understanding the shrinkage behavior is crucial in preventing failures caused by moisture-related shrinkage. Investigating wood dimension changes at different scales, such as in Masson pines, revealed higher shrinkage strain near the external face, leading to increased susceptibility to cracking. Anisotropic shrinkage was also observed, with different shrinkage ratios in the tangential and radial directions at both macroscopic and cellular levels.

Wood Preservation Practices and Future Outlook: Perspectives of Experts from Finland

Jami Jarvinen et al.

Summary: Based on interviews with Finnish experts, this paper examined wood preservation practices and outlook in the context of climate change. The study revealed that pressure impregnated wood will continue to evolve and secure its market, and there is potential for developing modified wood products with a focus on recyclability and lifecycle concepts. The demand for highly processed surface treatment products is high, and there are opportunities for more sustainable and environmentally friendly wood preservation methods. The increasing mold problems in Finland due to climate change emphasize the importance of surface treatment. Fire protection treatments are also in demand, but product development is hindered by testing fees and processes. While the possibility of termite spread to Finland triggered by global warming is a future scenario, it should be considered in products exported to hot countries. Preservatives have become more critical in protecting untreated wood from climate change's adverse effects. It is believed that this study will contribute to the transition towards innovative and environmentally friendly wood treatments in the Finnish market and promote the use of wood in the building construction industry.

Physical and Mechanical Properties of Plywood Produced with Thermally Treated Pinus taeda Veneers

Bruno Santos Ferreira et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of heat treatment on Pinus taeda plywood. The results showed that heat treatment reduced the roughness of the veneer's surface and altered the total extractives content. The specific gravity of the plywood initially increased with heat treatment, remained stable at higher temperatures, and the moisture content decreased. However, the thickness swelling of the plywood was not affected, and there was no change in its mechanical properties.

The effect of surface properties on bond strength of birch, black alder, grey alder and aspen veneers

Anti Rohumaa et al.

Summary: This study found that the bond strength between different wood species in the veneer preparation process is not solely determined by the properties of the weakest wood material. Birch had the lowest surface roughness, while aspen exhibited the best wettability. Combining lower quality and density wood species with birch does not significantly decrease the bond quality.
