摘要:Crushing bamboo into mats through a special pair of rollers,has gained more interest for producing bamboo based composites.An experiment to determine the crushing influence and optimize the process was conducted in this study.The results showed that as the times of crushing was increased,the composite modulus of rupture,water-resistance and compression strength were improved;however,the tensile strength was decreased,the modulus of elasticity was not significantly affected.It was suggested that to make a composite with high water resistance,bending and compression strengths,the bamboo materials could be crushed for seven times;while high tensile strength was required for this bamboo-based composite,the bamboo materials should be crushed for three times.

摘要:Melamine phosphate and zinc borate were selected as the main ingredients to develop a fire retardant for medium density fiberboard(MDF).A cone calorimeter was used to evaluate the combustion effects of MDF samples treated with the fire retardant.The results showed that melamine phosphate and zinc borate improved overall MDF fire retardant performance.By increasing zinc borate in the composition,MDF fire resistance and smoke suppression was improved.

摘要:Five special coating patterns,including caladium,parian,flash,wood grain,and imitation cracks,was applied to the sanded surface of rice straw particleboard.The coating film properties,including gloss,hardness,adhesive force,stain resistance and touch smoothness,were evaluated.The results showed that all the special coating films met the performance requirements for the corresponding Chinese national standard for surface coatings.
摘要:The decay performance of tebuconazole and propiconazole treated wood samples was evaluated by laboratory sand block test and filed stake test.The result of laboratory test showed that there was no significant difference of anti-fungi performance between TEB and PPZ.The rational retention of TEB and PPZ was no more than 240 g/m3.When ratio by weight between TEB and PPZ was 1:1,the rational retention was as lower as 180 g/m3.The decay resistance of triazole in different formulations had nearly no difference.The result from field stake test showed that the decay index was above 9.0 of TEB treated masson pine at the retention of 240 g/m3 after 3 years in Guangzhou,and termite index was above 9.2 of masson pine treated by TEB with deltamethrin,when the retention of deltamethrin was above 8.9 g/m3.
摘要:This paper reviews the long history of Chinese traditional wood structures and addresses some issues associated with them.It emphasizes the importance of applying modern techniques to the innovation of traditional wood structures in China.It also suggests that more attention should be paid to wood structural research,personnel training,industry-university-research cooperation and industrialization.
摘要:The authors introduced the commonly used methods for manufacturing hemp reinforced thermoplastic composites.They briefly described different forms of hemp reinforcement and their processing technologies.Finally,they analyzed the existing barriers in the processing of thermoplastic composites and discussed future research needs.
摘要:This article summarizes the current production status of some wood products in China including wood furniture,wood doors,wood flooring and wood cabinets.It also analyzes the development of the corresponding Chinese wood product standard systems.Finally,suggestions are presented for establishing and improving the standard systems for these wood products.
摘要:This article reviews the current status of test standards that are being developed for exterior durability of wood-based panels including an outdoor exposure test and an accelerated aging test.It also analyzes the correlation between the two testing methods and the key parameters for the accelerated aging test.It finally presents some suggestions for establishing such standards in China.
摘要:This article describes the principles and technical requirements for wood I-joists used in structural applications.This newly developed Chinese standard explains and illustrates all major technical parameters including material selection,load-carrying properties,test methods,and quality control.

摘要:The authors used a densification method to improve the physical and mechanical properties of poplar lumber.The process included treating the lumber with steam,then coating it with water-soluble low molecular phenol-formaldehyde(PF) resin and then hot-pressing it.The results indicated that extending the resin application and steam treatment improved performance for stiffness,strength,compression radio and springback.

摘要:The authors used poplar,masson pine,eucalyptus veneers and bamboo curtains to produce four structural wood-bamboo composite panels for container flooring applications.The results showed that the thickness tolerance,mechanical properties,bonding strength,and impregnation stripping performance of these panels met the National Standards GB/T 19536-2004.The manufacturing costs of the new panels were reduced by 13%21% compared with traditional container flooring products.
摘要:The authors laminated oriented structural straw board(OSSB) with reconstituted cork veneer using the cold pressing method to improve the OSSB surface quality for decorative applications.The effects of the pressing process,adhesive types,and adhesive content on the laminations were analyzed.The bonding strength of overlaid OSSB specimens under optimized parameters met the national standard specifications GB/T 15104-2006 for decorative veneered wood-based panels.
