摘要:The authors made bamboo-fiber based composites with bamboo obtained from a factory. The composites had densities between 0.85 to 1.20 g/cm3 using cold-pressing and hot-pressing methods. The major mechanical and physical properties of these composites were tested. The results showed that both cold-pressing and hot-pressing methods produced composites with high physical and mechanical performance. The composites produced by cold-pressing had better water resistance than those produced by hot pressing. However, the composites produced by hot-pressing had higher bending and shear strengths.

摘要:The authors studied the effects of the percentage and the size of wood flour on the viscosity and sedimentation of polyurethane wood filler used for furniture products. The results showed that: the viscosity of polyether composition increased when the m(wood flour)∶m(polyether polyols) greater than 7∶100 or the wood flour size was less than 80 mesh.The wood flour sedimentation rate decreased when the wood flour percentage or mesh size increased.
摘要:The authors evaluated the cutting force influence of rake angle, cutting thickness and cutting speed to provide the basis for rational design and use of circular saw blades on Chinese fir, Mongolian pine and Manchurian ash specimens. The results indicated that the principal and perpendicular cutting forces decreased with increasing rake angle and cutting thickness. It was also observed that cutting speed had little impact on principal and perpendicular cutting forces. The optimal cutting parameter settings for different wood species were proposed.
摘要:The smoke inhibiting property of FRW-C1 and FRW-C2, two new fire retardants in the FRW series for wood, were systematically studied using a cone calorimeter. The results show that the values of smoke ratio (SR), specific extinction area (SEA), the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2), and the production of carbon dioxide (PCO2) of FRW-C1 and FRW-C2 treated Korean pine samples decreased when compared with the untreated samples. The FRW-C1 and FRW-C2 treatments had a minor influence on the generation of carbon monoxide.

摘要:Wheat straw was chopped into small particles, mixed with polypropylene (PP) and hot-pressed into composite panels.The authors investigated the effects of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene(MAPP), PP percentage, and size of wheat straw on panel performance.The results showed that the higher percentage of fibrous PP and MAPP would improve composite panel mechanical properties .
摘要:To explore new opportunities of utilizing salix (of the willow family) wood, the authors made salix-based composite panels, overlaid with PF impregnated paper faced veneer or PF impregnated fiberboard, for a concrete molding application. They investigated the effect of processing conditions on the composite’s performance. The results showed that the optimal process conditions were: 12% adhesive and 160 ℃ press temperature for 0.9 min/mm panel thickness. The salix panels produced under these optimal conditions had performance similar to the specifications of comparable products.

摘要:Moso bamboo samples were investigated for mold inhibition following γ-ray exposure with different intensities ranging from 0 to 100 kGy. The results indicate that bamboo mold inhibition can be improved with increased γ-ray intensity. This new method is expected to become the new treatment to improve performance of bamboo products.
摘要:Both domestic and international standards for wood structures were reviewed and several key issues for improving Chinese standards, especially for the Code for Design of Timber Structures to be consistent with the international standards, were identified. The authors suggested that the standards for industrialized wood products and the standards for design of wood structures should be separately established. Wood of various species needs to be stress-graded and identified with its characteristic strength; the reliability of wood structures and the derivation of the design strengths of wood need to be further verified and the specifications of the reliability and strength values need to clarified; calculations of resistance of wood members and load-bearing capacities of the connections need to be necessarily improved and modified; and the contents of codes need to be reasonably selected and arranged.
摘要:This article reviewed how digital furniture design is being applied in the Chinese furniture industry. It also described the characteristics and main challenges of digital furniture design techniques for customized mass production and presented some suggestions for the Chinese furniture manufacturers to apply digital design techniques in the future.
摘要:Decorative aluminum/wood panels have been widely-used in China. This article summarizes the classifications and performance of this important type of composite panel. The technology used on the surface treatment, hot pressing process, and adhesive modification methods for aluminum-wood composite panel production is also reviewed.
摘要:The authors reviewed the current status, production process, and application of hydraulically applied wood fiber mulches used for protecting soil erosion. They analyzed the technical challenges and the trends of the hydraulically applied wood fiber mulches. They also provided references for future research and development of hydraulically applied wood fiber mulches.
摘要:In order to improve the surface properties of reconstituted decorative poplar flooring, the authors impregnated the flooring in water-soluble low molecular phenol-formaldehyde(PF) resin and then hot-pressed it. The results indicate that longer impregnation time improves surface abrasion resistance, impact resistance, surface hardness, and bending performance. It was noticed that phenol-formaldehyde resin with magnesium oxide and silicon dioxide can improve the wear resistance and impact resistance of the flooring.
摘要:Manglietia glauca drying characteristics were investigated using 100 ℃ constant temperature. The results showed that Manglietia glauca was relatively easy to dry with a Grade 2 drying speed. It was noticed that the main drying defects included initial checks and distortions (from grades 2 and 3), and cross-section deformation (between grades 1 and 2). No internal cracks were found in this study and there was little shrinkage difference between tangential and radial directions. Based on these results, a drying schedule for 20~30 mm thick Manglietia glauca was proposed.
摘要:Organic wood-flour putty was prepared by mixing wood-flour, polyvinyl acetate emulsion (16% solids content) and isocyanate resin. Wood flour with different diameters, from 10 to 60 μm, made from waste wood was used. This article discusses how the putty performance can be influenced by the wood flour size. The results show that with a specific formula, wood-flour putty made with 500 mesh flour has better painting properties and adhesive strength.
摘要:The authors summarized the formation reason of scale in heat-transfer oil furance, divided the scales into three kinds, recommended the different cleaning methods to the different scale.The result showed that the cleaning method was safe, efficient and effective.
