Description

HYBRID RESIN PARTICLE-BOARD
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to the field of adhesive systems comprising a hybrid resin. The present invention further relates to a particle board based on wood waste and bonded by a hybrid resin, and methods for manufacture of a particle board bonded by a hybrid resin.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
Efforts have been made to mix diphenylmethane-diisocyanate (PMDI) with other adhesives, such as urea formaldehyde adhesive (UF), melamine urea formaldehyde adhesive (MUF), and phenol formaldehyde adhesive (PF).
However, there is a need for cheaper and more enviromentally friendly adhesives and also it is interesting to be able to reuse waste material for the manufacture of particle boards.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An objective of the present invention is to create a hybrid adhesive for the manufacturing of particle boards (PB) as a new adhesive system which consist of both tannin formaldehyde resin (TF-resin) as a cheap natural adhesive and polymeric diphenylmethane-diisocyanate (PMDI), which is a costly fossil adhesive. Thus, the combination of TF-resin and PMDI in an adhesive would thereby help to alleviate some of the problems mentioned above.
Another objective of the present invention is to manufacture three layered particle board based on wood waste material and bonded by a combination of tannin formaldehyde resin (TF-resin) and polymeric diphenylmethane-diisocyanate (PMDI) forming a hybrid adhesive, which complies with the specifications of European standard EN 312 (2010) and fulfilled the requirement for interior fitments (including furniture) for use in dry conditions (Type P2).
In a first aspect the present invention relates to an adhesive system comprising a hybrid resin, wherein the hybrid resin comprises tannin- formaldehyde resin (TF-resin) and polymers based on diphenylmethane- diisocyanate (PMDI) in a ratio of 25%-40% TF-resin:60%-75% PMDI.
In one embodiment the present invention relates to an adhesive system, wherein the hybrid resin comprises essentially 25% or 30% or 40% tannin-formaldehyde resin and 75% or 70% or 60% polymers based on diphenylmethane-diisocyanate (PMDI).
In one embodiment the present invention relates to an adhesive system, wherein the tannin-formaldehyde resin is a water emulsion
comprising tannin and formaldehyde in 3-5 weight % of the amount of tannin.
In one embodiment the tannin-formaldehyde resin further comprises NaOFI, 2 weight % of the amount of tannin. In one embodiment the present invention relates to an adhesive system, wherein the tannin-formaldehyde resin is a water emulsion comprising 45 weight % tannin and formaldehyde, as a saturated water solution with concentration 37% by weight, 5 weight % of the amount of tannin. In one embodiment the tannin-formaldehyde resin is a water emulsion comprising 45 weight % tannin and formaldehyde 5 weight % of the amount of tannin and NaOFI, 2 weight % of the amount of tannin.
Sodium hydroxide is added because the TF-resin is an effective adhesive in the alkaline medium. Further, the concentration of the resin emulsion is optimized for the application on to wood particles as it makes spraying of the emulsion onto wood particles possible. If the resin emulsion is too
concentrated it will be a viscose solution and it is not possible to spray the resin onto wood particles. On the other hand, if the emulsion is too dilute there will be too much water added to the wood particles and thus the formation of particle board requires longer press times, which is not desirable in the manufacturing industry.
In one embodiment the present invention relates to an adhesive system, wherein the tannin-formaldehyde resin (TF-resin) comprises quebracho tannin. There are two types of tannin, hydrolysable tannin and non-hydrolysable tannin, i.e. condensable tannin. Only non-hydrolysable tannin such as quebracho tannin has the ability to interact with formaldehyde to form an adhesive while the hydrolysable tannin negatively affects the gluing process by particle board manufacturing. The present invention manages to decrease the amount of formaldehyde in an adhesive system suitable for particle boards, which is promising in view of the effect of formaldehyde on the health of the environment.

Medium density, three-layered particle boards were produced by using different adhesives (PMDI, TF-resin, combination of TF-resin and PMDI). The information about the different adhesives used are listed in Table 1. Wood particles of SL and CL were dried at a temperature of 75 °C by using drying cabinet to reach approximately 2 % moisture content. Particles were weighted to obtain the target final bulk density of 620 kg/m3 and thickness of 19 mm.

The TF-resin may for example be achieved by preparing a 100 g water solution by mixing 45 g of tannin, 2.25 g formaldehyde and 0.9 g with water added up to 100 g.
For particle board production wood particles were treated with different adhesives in a laboratory scale blender, see defined production parameters in table 2. Further, the resinated material was transferred immediately into a frame with dimension 750 x 500 mm on a metal plate and pre-pressed by hands. In a next step, the frame was removed and the pre-pressed mat was hot pressed in a laboratory hot-press (Siempelkamp Hydr. Lab. Press A 308/1988). The pressed particle boards were then trimmed (700 mm x 450 mm) to avoid edge effects and sanded (grain size 60) to boards within 18 mm thickness by using a wide belt sanding machine (Felder type FW 950 C). After a conditioning phase of 4 weeks at 65±5 % relative humidity and 20 °C to reach equilibrium moisture content the boards were cut into various sizes for testing according to the used standards. For each particle board variant three boards were manufactured. Table 3 demonstrates the production parameters of the particle boards.

Determination of the physical- and mechanical properties of
manufactured variants of particle boards according to European Norms (EN: 2010).
Mechanical properties:
Static bending strength test, internal bond (IB) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) were determined according to the European standards method (EN: 2010) [Static bending strength test (EN 310) and internal bond (EN 319)].
Internal bond strength (IB):
The average values and variation coefficient of IB strength, static bending strength and MOE of the particle board variants are shown in table 3. The results in table 3 demonstrate that three-layered particle boards bonded by a TF-PMDI hybrid resin (variant no. 3) have achieved the highest internal bond strength values with 0.53 N/mm2 followed by only PMDI bonded particle boards (variant no. 1 ) with IB values of 0.49 N/mm2. The use of TF-resin (variant no. 2) for particle board production lead to the lowest IB values with 0.27 N/mm2. Furthermore, the table demonstrates that the particle board variants no. 1 and no. 3 do always achieve the required value of 0.35 N/mm2 for particle boards type P2 for interior fitments (including furniture) in dry conditions. However, the results of variant no. 1 and no. 3 are more than 40 % and 51 % over the requirement of the standard. As mentioned before, variant no. 2 shows the lowest strength values but in consideration of the high moisture content of 9.9 % the achieved IB strength can be evaluated as acceptable. Bending strength and Modulus of elasticity (MOE):
Table 3 presents the obtained results of static bending strength and MOE as a function of the used binder systems. Particle boards consisting of TF-resin show the lowest flexural properties with bending strength of 9.5 N/mm2 and MOE values of 1940 N/mm2 followed by TF-PMDI hybrid resin bonded particle boards (bending strength: 13.6 N/mm2 and MOE: 2360 N/mm2) and finally exceeded by a bending strength of 14.7 N/mm2 and MOE of 2490 N/mm2 by only PMDI bonded boards. As a function of the binder system the bending properties of the produced particle boards vary but, as a matter of fact, all three different variants fulfill the requirement for MOE and exceed the required value of 1600 N/mm2 but not all variants achieve the minimum requirement of bending strength. Flowever, variant no. 1 and no. 3 obtain 33 % or 23 % higher bending strength values than required, respectively. Furthermore, the achieved MOE values of the particle board variants are 21 % to 55 % over the minimum requirement of 1600 N/mm2.
It can be summarized that the variants no. 1 and no. 3 do show sufficient mechanical properties and fulfill the standards of EN 310:2010 and EN 319:2010 for particle boards type P2 for interior fitments (including furniture) in dry conditions.

Physical properties:
Moisture content, density, water absorption and thickness swelling were determined according to European Norms (EN: 2010) [Moisture Content (EN 322), Density (EN 323), Water absorption (EN 52351 ), and Thickness swelling (EN 317)].
Mean values and variation coefficients of thickness swelling (2 h and 24 h) and water absorption (2 h and 24 h) of the different bonded particle boards are presented in table 4. According to table 4, particle boards bonded with TF-PMDI hybrid resin (variant no. 3) achieve with 0.3 % and 6.8 % the best swelling behavior followed by PMDI bonded particle boards with a measured thickness swelling of 1.6 % and 8.3 %, respectively, and exceeded by variant no. 2. Particleboard variant no. 2, TF-resin bonded particle boards show a swelling behavior of 9.5 % and 38.9 %. Table 4 shows an overview about the measured water absorption values (2 h and 24 h). The particle boards only bonded with PMDI or with a TF-PMDI hybrid resin show a water absorption of 8.8 % and 9.3 %, after 2 h of water soaking, respectively. Extended water soaking of 24 h results in respective absorption values of 29.4 % and 27.7 %. The particle boards bonded by TF-resin show with 35.7 % or 103.7 % the worst behavior, compared to these other variants. Variant no. 2 behaves poorly against water soaking. This behavior can be explained by the used TF-resin and it can be supposed that the physical properties, such as thickness swelling and water absorption can be improved by using a hydrophobic agent. There are no defined limits in the European standards of EN 310:2010 for thickness swelling (2 h and 24 h) or water absorption (2 h and 24 h) of particle boards.

Values are arithmetic mean values of n= 10 samples; VC = variation of coefficient EN 312:2010 (Type P2) for interior fitments (including furniture) in dry conditions Determination of the formaldehyde:
Formaldehyde release and extractable formaldehyde of the
manufactured variants of particle boards, were determined according to European Norms (formaldehyde release according to EN 717-3 (3 h and 24 h) and extractable formaldehyde according to EN 120).
Table 5 displays mean values of extractable formaldehyde content and formaldehyde release (3 h and 24 h) of particle boards bonded by three different adhesives.
The obtained results show that particle boards consisting of PMDI resin, or a TF-PMDI hybrid resin, have the lowest extractable formaldehyde content with 0.7 mg/100 g o. d. board or 1.9 mg/100 g o. d. board,
respectively, and significantly exceeded by particle boards bonded with TF- resin with formaldehyde content of 6.7 mg/100 g o. d. board. The extractable formaldehyde values of the particle board variants comply with the
specifications EN 312 (2010) and the maximum allowed limit value of < 8.0 mg/100 g o. d. board (EPF value is 6.5 mg/100g). The results fulfill the requirement for particle boards of type P2.
The behavior of the different bonded particle boards according to formaldehyde release is similar to the observed extractable formaldehyde content. PMDI bonded boards show the lowest formaldehyde release (2.0 and 11.6 mg/1000 g o. d. board) followed by TF-PMDI hybrid resin bonded boards (4.6 and 23.4 mg/1000 g o. d. board) and exceeded by TF-resin bonded particle boards (17.9 and 100.8 mg/1000 g o. d. board). The high formaldehyde release values could be attributed to the high moisture content of formaldehyde test samples of variant no. 2 after conditioning (MC: 9.9 %).
According to EN 312 (2010) there are no defined limits for the formaldehyde release from particle boards. Tab. 5: Mean values of extractable formaldehyde content and formaldehyde release (3 h and 24 h) of particle board variants based on wood waste

Production and characterization of core and surface layer particles In a first step the shredded waste solid wood material was
mechanically crushed in the pilot plant of the Biisgen-lnstitute (University of Gottingen) to core layer particles (60% by mass) and surface layer particles (40% by mass). The particle size of the wood particles are as described by the present invention for example in tables 6 and 7.
For the production of core and surface layer particles the waste wood material was at first cut down to particles by using a knife ring flaker (Co. Modul Systeme Engineering GmbFI, Laufen/Germany). Thereafter, the particles were screened into core and surface layer particles by using a tumbler screening machine (Co. Allgaier Process Technology GmbH, Uhingen/Germany). For the PB core layer only particles between mesh >3mm x 1 mm and mesh:s; 4mm x 4mm were used. Wood material passing through mesh 3mm x 1 mm were further processed for use as particles for PB surface layers.
After screening, the amount of the core layer particles was bigger than the necessary proportion of 60% by mass. Therefore, it was decided to crush a part of the core layer particle material in a hammer mill (model F3, Co. electra, Poudenas/France) in order to get a sufficient amount of suitable material for the surface layer. For hammer milling a round-hole sieve (mesh 2mm) was used. The fine particle material gained by knife ring flaking and hammer milling respectively, was also screened into surface layer particles using the tumbler screening machine. For the PB surface layers only particles between mesh >0.4mm x 0.4mm and mesh:s; 3mm x 1 mm were used. After screening samples (500 grams) of core and surface layer particles were analysed concerning their particles size distribution by using a Retsch sieving machine (AS 400) at 250 rpm for 5 minutes. In table 6 and table 7 the results of the particles size analysis of the core and surface layer particles are compiled.
Tab. 6: Particles size distribution of the core layer particles made by knife ring iaking of the shredded waste solid wood materia .

Tab. 7: Particles size distribution of the surface layer particles made by knife ring flaking and hammer milling of the shredded waste solid wood material.
Figure imgf000025_0002
After screening, the moisture content of the core and surface layer particles was 12.0% and 12.3% respectively. For this reason the core and surface layer particles were dried in a Memmert universal drying oven at 70°C to a target moisture content of 2%. After drying the particles were packed airtight in polyethylene bags until further processing.
Production of 3 models of particle boards in laboratory scale
For preparation of laboratory PB the aforementioned dried surface and core layer particles were used. Three models of 3-layer particle boards were produced using:
1. Polymeric Diphenylmethane-diisocyanate (PMDI)
2. Tannin-Formaldehyde-resin (TF-resin)
3. A combination of TF-resin and PMDI The product l-Bond PB EM 4352 (Co. Huntsman) was used for manufacturing PMDI-bonded PB. For the production of TF-bonded particle boards a technical quebracho tannin (Colatan GT 5) (Co. Unitan/Argentina) was chosen. For the manufacturing of PMDI:TF-resin bonded PB the particles were blended first with the TF-resin; in a separate step the PMDI was sprayed on the particles. As sizing agent the product Hydrowax 730 (Co.
Sasol/Hamburg, Germany) was used for all PB models. For each PB model 3 boards were manufactured. Table 8 summarizes the conditions for preparing the laboratory PB.
After production the particle boards were stored and conditioned for 6 days in the pilot plant of the Biisgen-lnstitute under normal conditions.
Subsequently, the PB were trimmed and sanded (grain size 60) to a board thickness of 18mm by using a wide belt sanding machine (Type FW 950 C) (Co. Felder KG, Hall in Tirol/Austria). After sanding the PB were conditioned for 4 weeks at 20°C and 65 % relative humidity.
Thereafter, the boards were tested according to EN 322 for moisture content, EN 323 for density, EN 317 for thickness swelling, DIN 52351 for water absorption, EN 310 for bending strength and modulus of elasticity in bending, EN 319 for internal bond strength. The formaldehyde release of the boards was evaluated using the flask method according to EN 717-3:1996. Moreover, the extractable formaldehyde content was determined according to the perforator method (EN 120:1992).
While the invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be the most practical embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not to be limited to the disclosed
embodiments, but on the contrary, it is intended to cover various
modifications and equivalents included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
