The synthesis process of MUF is based on a urea formaldehyde resin with a small amount of melamine added to improve the water repellency and dimensional stability. Dilution of MF with water decreased its viscosity; therefore MF may have penetrated in wood better than MUF. “Chemical modification of wood with thermosetting resin: Effect on dimensional stability and strength property,” Bioresource Technology 73(2), 179-181. <>/ProcSet[/PDF/Text/ImageB/ImageC/ImageI] >>/MediaBox[ 0 0 612 792] /Contents 4 0 R/Group<>/Tabs/S/StructParents 0>> DOI: 10.1016/S0960-8524(99)00167-4, Deka, M., Gindl, W., Wimmer, R., and Christian, H.

Also, the increase in density of modified white poplar was higher than that of Scots pine, regardless of the resin. Modification with MF or MUF reduced the water uptake of the wood substantially. 1987). This indicated that the amount of resin placed in the voids in white poplar was higher than that of Scots pine, because of poplar’ higher porosity. <>>> Also, a 20% decrease in the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) was reported in wood treated with methylated melamine formaldehyde (Epmeier et al. “Wood enhancement treatments I. Impregnation of southern yellow pine with melamine formaldehyde and melamine-ammeline-formaldehyde resins,” Journal of Wood Chemistry & Technology 14(4), 577-603. In addition, MUF is almost transparent, which is favorable for impregnation (Cai 2007). Gindl et al. 2004). The data were analyzed statistically using an SPSS software system (SPSS17, IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). 1. The oven-dry densities (TS 2471 (1976)) and the equilibrium moisture content (TS 2472 (1976)) of the samples, before and after the modification treatment, were determined. Because of swelling of the wood is based on the swelling of the cell walls, primarily resins placed in the cell wall prevent swelling of wood more. where mo is the oven-dry weight of the samples before the modification in grams and mj  is the oven-dry weight of the samples after the modification in grams. h�. Therefore, the density increase was higher in the white poplar. (2003) reported a higher ASE (60% to 75%) for acetylation, furfurylation, and maleoylation, and a lower ASE (22% to 45%) in succinylation, methylated melamine formaldehyde-modification, and oil-heat treatment. TS 2595 (1977). The reduction in the MOR by MF was approximately 25%. DOI: 10.1080/02773819408003114, Schoch, W., Heller, I., Schweingruber, F. H., and Kienast, F.

Research on the modification of wood with MUF is limited, and there is limited research on the modification of white poplar wood, which has low density, low-cost, and is widely available. (2004) used water-soluble MF resin to improve the hardness of Norway spruce and indicated that a minimum impregnation depth of 2 mm was required to achieve an optimal increase in hardness. Epmeier, H., Westin, M., Rapp, A. O., and Nilsson, T. (2003). endobj The MF-modified samples exhibited a greater increase in density than the samples modified with MUF for both wood species. (2007). Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) (SP) and white poplar (Populus alba L.) (WP) were used in this experiment. Liu, J., and Wang, Y. (2003) reported a slight decrease in EMC at 90% RH while using methylated melamine formaldehyde resin. Melamine resins are "methylated" by adding excess methanol to the manufacturing process. In comparison with phenolic resins, MUF is less expensive and has low viscosity. Dimensional instability of wood, because of moisture changes, limits its use in certain applications, principally for outdoor use (Gindl et al. @�kn�k@/�;/R&�� � Q%Y�?�[�Hi0���I�O �#qQI(�:bJ��u:"w鈏4IG:��aشn���WX�. %PDF-1.5 It can be inferred that the modification with MF or MUF did not always affect the MOE. Erdin, N., and Bozkurt, Y.A. Modification with MF decreased the MOE, while modification with MUF increased the MOE for both wood species. Deka et al. The white poplar wood, with both the resins, exhibited a reduction in the MOR. “ Production of water tolerant melamine-urea-formaldehyde resin by incorporation of sodium metabisulphite, ” International Journal of Adhesion and Adhesives 70, 160-166.

The compression strength parallel to the grain values of the Scots pine was not affected by the modification with MF or MUF; however, there was a slight decrease in the MF-modified samples and a slight increase in the MUF-modified samples. Both resins were successful at improving the physical and mechanical properties of Scots pine and white poplar woods. Before physical and mechanical analysis testing, the samples were cut into various dimensions, according to the specifications of the testing standard. Although many studies have been focused on MF modification, it has not been widely applied in an industrial setting because of its higher cost than other polymerizable monomers and pre-polymers (Deka et al. Melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resins of improved environmental compatibility were synthesized at different molar ratios, temperature and pH. Although the BE values were similar for both species, the WPG values of white poplar were much higher than that of Scots pine, most likely because of the lower density and larger cell lumen of white poplar wood. In agreement with the results of this study, Epmeier et al. Samples were cut into dimensions of 20 × 20 × 360 mm (R × T × L) and acclimatized at a temperature of 20 ± 3 °C and a relative humidity (RH) of 65% for 4 weeks.

Melamine-urea formaldehyde resin has been applied in the manufacturing of plywood and particleboard for dry conditions. (2003) reported that the anti-swelling efficiency (ASE) of Scots pine, beech, and birch woods increased by 30% to 75% when modified with eight different chemicals. Wood has been widely used for many applications, such as construction, furniture, and tools, because of its many desirable characteristics, such as a favorable mass/strength ratio, natural durability, and biodegradability. endobj 3 0 obj 2003b; Epmeier et al. A shortage in high quality hardwoods has driven researchers and manufacturers to search for alternative resources, such as softwoods and some low-density hardwoods, for value-added applications. The resin is prepared by reacting formaldehyde, urea, and ammonia in at least a two under alkaline conditions and optionally neutralizing the resin in a third step. “Wood-Determination of ultimate stress in compression parallel to grain,” Turkish Standard Institutes, Ankara, Turkey. Because both wood species were classified as moderately difficult species for impregnation (Aslan 1998), and because of the relatively small dimensions of the samples, it can be said that penetration of the resins were good. (2004). Gindl, W., Zargar-Yaghubi, F., and Wimmer, R. (2003b). The ASE values of the MF-modified samples were higher than that of MUF-modified samples. Table 3.

Likewise, Epmeier et al. Higher molecular weight of the melamine-formaldehyde (156.149 g/mol) compared to urea-formaldehyde (90.082 g/mol) may have contributed the higher WPG and BE in modification with MF. (2003a). “Wood hardening by methoxymethyl melamine,” Holz als Roh –und Werkstoff 53(4), 276-276. Cross-sectional surface views of the modified Scots pine and white poplar woods were captured by using a digital microscope (Celestron 44308 Digital Pro) to illustrate the placement of the resin particles. The process of obtaining a urea-formaldehyde resin is carried out according to example 2. Impregnation was conducted in a stainless steel chamber at 4 bar pressure for 30 or 60 min, depending on the treatment level. Modification with MF reduced the MOR for Scots pine, while modification with MUF reduced the MOR slightly. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) model was used to determine the effect of the MF and MUF resins on the mechanical and physical properties of wood. 1. White poplar’s structural elements under compression loading could be modified with MUF because the modification with MUF increased its CS substantially. Because there was no considerably difference between the 30-min and 60-min impregnation durations, a 30-min impregnation at 4 bar pressure is recommended to adequately modify the wood with MF and MUF. All of the modifications reduced the EMC by 1.5% to 2.5% compared with the unmodified (control) samples. After the impregnation process, the samples were cured at a temperature of 150 °C for 40 min in an oven, after removing excess resin on the surface. Melamine urea formaldehyde(MUF) Melamine urea formaldehyde powder resin MUF is a powder melamine urea formaldehyde resin, which must be dissolved in water prior to use. The dimensional stability of the Scots pine and white poplar was enhanced by melamine-formaldehyde (MF) or melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) modification. (2007) reported that the compression strength of the wood notably increased by chemical modification at high weight percent gain levels. The performance characteristics are, therefore, a function of the ratio of these functional groups in the amino resin. FORMALDEHYDE RESINS (PHENOL (PF), MELAMINE (MF) & UREA (UF) RESINS) - Project Report - Manufacturing Process - Cost - Investment Required. The ASE of MUF-modified woods were 46.4% and 42.6% for the Scots pine and white poplar, respectively. 2002) and the amorphous region of cellulose fibrils (Hua et al. Wan, H., and Kim, M. G. (2008). Ltd. is a renowned manufacturer of Melamine Formaldehyde Resin and Urea Formaldehyde Resins. (2007) indicated that the modification of Norway spruce with MF resulted in a 17.5% increase in ASE. The modification with MF or MUF increased the BH of Scots pine and white poplar, which is favorable for wooden elements exposed to abrasion and/or scratching, i.e., wood for flooring, table tops, or cabinet doors. Cross-sectional surface views of the modified Scots pine and white poplar woods are shown in Fig. The increase in MOE of MUF-modified Scots pine was insignificant compared to unmodified samples; however, the increase in MOE of MUF-modified white poplar was significant. “Wood-Determination of volumetric swelling,” Turkish Standard Institutes, Ankara, Turkey. The density of the wood increased when the resins occupied the cell lumens and cell walls. 2. where Vo is the oven-dry volume of the samples before the modification in cm3 and Vi is the oven-dry volume of the samples after the modification in cm3. <> TS 2472 (1976). In particular, MUF-modified wood is suitable for use in humid conditions, such as in bathrooms, because of its lower EMC. In its butylated form, it is dissolved in n-butanol and xylene.It is then used to cross-link with alkyd, epoxy, acrylic, and polyester resins… There was also a significant difference between the MOR of MF-modified samples and MUF-modified samples. Scots pine and white poplar were modified with melamine formaldehyde (MF) and melamine-urea formaldehyde (MUF) resins to improve their physical and mechanical properties. Alternatively, MUF resin has a greater potential of infiltrating the industry because it is relatively low cost and has a high availability. 121-142.
