Advanced bonding technologies
Abstract
The adhesive bonding of solid wood, wood particles of varying shapes and sizes, and wood fibres is the key for the industrial production of advanced wood products. New challenges in wood bonding appear with respect of reduction of emissions, improving bonding performance, bonding alternative raw material with increased variability, and new products. Because of the awareness that chemical binders are based on limited fossil resources, the usage of renewable materials is of permanently increasing interest. Already established renewable binders from other applications are investigated in a multi-area project that strives for 100% bio-based matrices and resins, whereas in this project renewables are introduced as additives in order to improve resin properties that allow a more efficient resin application. Moreover, the usage of novel renewable materials produced in the project mechanical disintegration, like nanocellulose, is planned. In conclusion it is claimed that: a thorough understanding of interfaces leads to alternative bonding solutions, enables bonding of new substrates, and improves bonding processes preventing down time.
