摘要:Bamboo-based fiber composite specimens,developed for wind turbines,were heat treated at 80 ℃ for 8 hours and 50 ℃ for 24 hours.Their surface appearance and some mechanical performances were then evaluated.The results showed that some small and discontinuous cracks were observed after the heat treatment.However,the heat treatment had no obvious influence on the mechanical properties.The treated composite had slightly improved tension,compression,horizontal shear strength properties.
摘要:Performances of liquefied bamboo resin foaming material and overlaid foaming materials were tested.The results showed that foam material had a 0.128 g/cm3 average density,an average 0.22 MPa compression strength,an average 0.032 W/(m·K) thermal conductivity,and a 41.7 oxygen index.Composites made with the foam materials had an excellent 37 dB sound insulation value and a 38.1 oxygen index flame retardant performance.
摘要:Decorative wood-based panels,overlayed with metal foil,have become more popular in China due to their appearance and low cost.The authors sought to improve the panel’s durability by modifying regular phenol-formaldehyde resin by mixing it with thermoplastic resins and coupling agents to improve the bonding performance between aluminum foil and MDF panels.The results showed that modified phenol-formaldehyde resin improved surface bonding strength and reduced water soakage.Although the modified resin reduced the mechanical properties,they still met the requirement of industry standard LY/T 1983-2011.

摘要:Knots are one of the main natural defects that affect wood utilization.The authors sought to have a better understanding how knots affected glue laminated board performance by testing and analyzing the shear modulus of 100 mm×88 mm×48 mm Pinus sylvestris samples with different knot types and size.The results showed that knots present in the gluing surface influenced the bonding.Generally,knot size had more effect than the knot type on shear strength.The conclusion is that knots with diameter more than 25 mm significantly reduced the shear strength and should be removed.
摘要:In order to improve the dimensional stability of Chinese fir,the authors used two formulae of dimethyldichlorosilane and polydimethylsiloxane solutions with n-hexane as the main solvent to treat the wood.The results indicated that the equilibrium moisture content of both treated samples decreased considerably.Surface water contact angle and antiswelling efficiency of treated samples increased.
摘要:In order to improve rubber wood heat treatment technology,the authors investigated the amount of organic acid released and its effect on rubber wood performance during high temperature heat treatment.The results indicated that increasing the temperature and the heat treatment duration increased the amount of organic acid released which improved the color appearance and decay resistance of treated wood.However,it possibly had a negative impact on bending strength.
摘要:Principles of module code and configuration technology during furniture mass customization were discussed.Using a Finnish company’s module configurator as an example,the authors introduced the configuration principle and implementation of furniture module codes.This report will be helpful for Chinese furniture companies planning to shift the paradigm from mass production to mass customization.
摘要:Workshop air pollution is one of the most visible environmental problems in China.Inhalable particulates,in particular,have recently drawn more attention due to the pronounced influence on air quality and human health.In this study,the concentration and distribution of total suspended particulates(TSP)were investigated during the straw crushing process.The result showed that the concentration of inhalable particulates,with diameter less than 10 μm(PM10),was much higher than the requirement specified by the national standards,and the proportion of particulates with diameter less than 2.5 μm(PM2.5) reached 0.01%.
摘要:The authors measured moisture contents in solid wood flooring in different apartments in multistory building in Nanjing,Jiangsu province.The results indicated that the average moisture content of flooring located near windows and balconies facing toward the south were lower than those located near windows in north facing bedrooms,except for the first floor where there was no obvious difference among moisture contents of the same solid wood flooring species.Generally,the moisture content decreased when the floor location increased.This paper provides useful information to produce solid wood flooring with reasonable moisture content and flooring installation.
摘要:Edge-glued panels made from Tsuga heteophylla,Hevea brasiliensis and Carya spp.were tested for bonding,shearing,and bending performance.The results showed: 1) the edge-glued samples,after the immersion delamination test,met the type Ⅰ requirements specified in the National Standard GB/T 21140-2007,but the finger-jointed samples failed to meet the type Ⅱ requirements entirely.2) the average shearing strength of edge-glued samples was about 5.0% less than the average solid wood shearing strength parallel to grain.3) the average bending strength of the finger-jointed samples was about 26.2%77.9% of the solid wood bending strength.

摘要:Bolted connections have been widely used in modern timber structures.Their mechanical properties are very important for designing safe and durable wood structures.The authors have summarized studies on timber bolt connections for predicting failure,as well as modeling strength and mechanical behaviors under fire and seismic conditions.The authors also have made some suggestions for future modeling mechanical behavior and reliability based on previous development in modern timber bolted joints.

摘要:This paper illustrates the significance and need to develop new standards and to revise existing standards for bamboo and bamboo products.It also reviews the status of the bamboo standard development in China and other countries.Finally,suggestions for improving the bamboo standardization in China are proposed.
摘要:The authors pretreated Poplar(Populus euramevicana) with a surface densification process to improve utilization.The process involved hot pressing for 2.5 hours and heat treatment for 3 hours.The results showed that the samples increased surface hardness,modulus of elasticity,and tangential dimensional stability following surface densification.However,modulus of rupture decreased slightly due to hemicellulose decomposition whereas paint film hardness of poplar flooring increased but coating adhesion and coating wear resistance were unchanged.
摘要:The authors used wild plant stalk(miscanthus floridulus) to make oriented stalk board with fire resistant performance to add value to the abundant resource.The stalks were reduced by chopping them into elements with a target dimension of 4 mm wide,4 mm thick,and 105 mm long.Before being dried,they were treated with diammonium hydrogen phosphate(DAP) in 4%,6% and 8% concentrations,respectively.The test results showed the samples made with the DAP treated stalks had considerably improved fire resistant performance.
摘要:A drying schedule was developed to improved drying quality of 40 mm thick small diameter Eucalyptus urophylla lumber.The results showed that the total drying time was 392 hours and the dried lumber met the first grade requirement for the GB/T 6491-1999 national standard.
