Effectiveness of Melamine Impregnated Paper (MIP) Waste as an Adhesive in Particleboard Manufacturing
Öz
Aim of study: The objectives of this research were to determine the effectiveness of
melamine impregnated paper (MIP) waste as an adhesive in the particleboard
manufacturing and effects of the MIP waste using as an adhesive on the some
technological properties of particleboard.
Area of study: To determine the mechanical, physical and formaldehyde
content of particleboards manufactured with different resins (MIP waste, neat
MIP resin).
Material
and Methods: In this study, particleboards were produced with utilizing MIP waste and
neat MIP resin. No additional adhesive was used for MIP waste. Two different
types of mixture of Turkish red pine (90%) and poplar wood (10%) particles
(fine and coarse) were used. Eight different particleboard
groups and three particleboards with three layers (two surface layers and one
core layer) were manufactured for each group in hot press.
Main
results:
As results of this
study, amount of adhesives had significant effect on panel properties. With the
increasing of both adhesive rates (MIPW and neat MIP resin), mechanical and
physical properties of particleboard were improved. However, formaldehyde
content values were worsen with the increasing
of both adhesive rates. The best result for MIPW and neat MIP resin were
obtained when highest rates of them (25% and 13%, respectively) were used.
Research
highlights:
Particleboards were successfully manufactured with using of the MIP waste as
adhesive. Although the MIPW (25%) boards were provided lower mechanical and
physical values than neat MIP resin (13%) boards, they were satisfied the most
of standard requirements.
