Synthesis of Glyoxal-urea(GU) Resin and Its Application in Rubberwood Modification
Glyoxal-urea resins(GU) were synthesized from glyoxal and urea at six ratios respectively, and then used for rubberwood modification. The results showed that at G∶U ratio of 1.6, the resin performed best in the solid content, the viscosity, the water solubility and the storage life. Rubberwood samples were impregnated with the GU resin at a concentration of 30%. Modulus of elasticity(MOE) and modulus of rupture(MOR) of the treated rubberwood samples were increased by 21% and 32.5%, respectively, comparing with untreated control samples. Dimensional stability(ASE) of the treated samples reached 65.9% as well.
