The chemical and morphological changes in heartwood specimens of Liquidambar orientalis Mill. caused by the white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor brown-rot fungi Tyromyces palustris Gloeophyllum trabeum were studied wet chemistry, FT-IR, GC-MS analyses, photo-microscopy. According to results, 26 extracts identified ethanol/toluene extraction 17 ethanol found. Heartwood L. highly susceptible tested. While 1% NaOH solubility increased 35% specimen decayed T. palustris, only an 8% increase was...
This study evaluated biological resistance of composites produced from polypropylene and either wood or bamboo by using two different levels particle content three sizes.Composite specimens containing higher smaller size resulted in increased mass losses decay tests against Tyromyces palustris, a standardized test fungus, Schizophyllum commune, Pycnoporus coccineus.As increased, laboratory termite increased; however, decreased caused slightly losses.Higher bamboo-composites were obtained...
Particleboard and medium density fiberboard (MDF) panels were produced using stone pine (Pinus pinea) cones, which mixed with either wood particles or fibers from beech at various ratios. Specimens the subjected to AWPA E10-06 soil-block tests two brown-rot fungi, Gloeophyllum trabeum Postia placenta white rot Trametes versicolor Pleurotus ostreatus for 12 weeks. also subterranean termites, Coptotermes formosanus, according JIS K 1571 standard test method 3 Pinecone material in furnish had...
Manufacturing panels from Tetra Pak® (TP) packaging material might be an alternative to conventional wood-based panels. This study evaluated some chemical and physical properties as well biological, weathering, fire performance of with without zinc borate (ZnB) by using shredded TP cartons. Such material, a worldwide well-known multilayer beverage system, is composed cellulose, low-density polyethylene (LDPE), aluminum (Al). Panels produced waste were also examined FT-IR understand the...
Environmentally friendly composites are increasingly used in building applications that require fungal and insect resistance. This study evaluated the ability of both wood-degrading mold fungi to decompose hybrid made wood furnish, glass fibers, jute fabric skin. Fungal decay resistance tests employed brown-rot fungus (Fomitopsis palustris) white-rot (Trametes versicolor). Mold were performed with a mixture three fungi, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Trichoderma viride. The test...
The use of raw boron minerals (i.e. tincalconite, colemanite, and ulexite) was evaluated to increase the fire performance wood plastic composites (WPCs) in comparison with commercially available retardants (FRs). Cone calorimetry limited oxygen index tests were performed evaluate properties WPC specimens. Artificial weathering 3-point bending also on test specimens loaded highest loading level FRs. most important decrease heat release rate values 42% 40% magnesium hydroxide- colemanite-added...
Abstract The potential for extraction of copper from wood treated with micronised, nano or soluble forms has been evaluated in view chemical remediation. In focus were EDTA, oxalic acid, bioxalate, and d -gluconic acid Cu wood. Bioxalate extractions 24 h resulted removal over 95% all tested materials, the effectiveness was very similar to that nano-CuO-treated more effective than removing ACQ-D, MCQ, MCA, CA-C Cu-ethanolamine lowest nano-CuO even though other materials. As pH decreased,...
Fire-resistance and thermal degradation were evaluated for particleboards incorporated with colemanite common boron-based fire retardants (zinc borate boric acid:borax mixture). The main purpose of this study was to suggest an alternative retardant be used in low cost considerably lower environmental impact compared retardants. For purpose, the mineral chosen as a raw boron because its good performance demonstrated previously wood-plastic composites. test compounds into furnish during...
Bioincising is a biotechnological process to improve the permeability of wood by biological organisms. In recent years, there has been great interest determine changes in anatomical structure as result bioincising process. this study, effects Physisporinus vitreus on pit and Picea orientalis L. sapwood heartwood were studied. Bioincised non-bioincised samples then treated with micronized copper quaternary Celcure AC-500 preservatives either dipping or vacuum method. The distribution amount...
