Mechanical properties of plasma-irradiated and surface-coated wood plastic composites (WPCs) have been investigated in this paper. WPCs were developed by injection molding technique using fiber (WF) as reinforcement polypropylene (PP) matrix. The short, discontinuous WF was compounded with thermoplastic PP at varying weight fractions 0 wt%, 25 wt% (WP25), 50 (WP50) to yield tensile test specime...

Wood vinegar is a substance, derived from cooling black carbon fire, which could be used instead of chemical materials in the agriculture industry as an organic compound. In order to study the effectiveness of pine wood vinegar on physiological and photosynthesis traits of cucumber, two experiments were conducted based on a completely randomized design with six treatments including 0, 1250, 200...

Acrylic acid has good environmental weather resistance, water alcohol dirt and other properties. An acrylic dispersion with a core–shell structure was prepared reacted polyisocyanate-type curing agent to prepare waterborne polyurethane topcoat suitable for wood. The two-component used in combination primer sealing applied Pine (Pinus strobus) boards carry out gloss, wear adhesion experiments. e...

In recent years, with the development of coating industry and increasing awareness environmental protection, modification waterborne wood coatings has become focus research. Generally, system composed silica sol UV curing can make up for defects poor mechanical properties, low hardness, slow speeds coatings. Herein, we used sol-reinforced UV-curable acrylic tested related physical properties FT...

Flame treatment is an ancient technique for surface protection of wood. Further processing charred wood elements depends on aesthetic and protective requirements. This study presents some general properties weathering behaviour the Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) European larch (Larix decidua Mill.), protected by variations sanding, charring, charring + brushing, coating treatments. Cha...

This study was designed to investigate the weathering characteristics of Calabrian pine (Pinus brutia) wood. The wood specimens were impregnated with some copper-based chemicals and then varnish coated. As chemicals, Celcure C4, Korasit KS, Tanalith E 8000 used for impregnation. Polyurethane (PV) water-based (WBV) as coating materials. Firstly, 2,5 % 5 aqueous solutions coated PV WBV. Impregnat...
