Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wood adhesive technology, specifically to a biomass formaldehyde-free resin film, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Engineered wood products are an important area for the efficient utilization of wood resources and are widely used in furniture, decoration and other industries. In engineered wood product production, adhesives are the key materials that connect wood units and determine the performance of the board. Traditional formaldehyde-based adhesives (urea-formaldehyde resin, phenolic resin, etc.) have long dominated the market due to their low raw material costs and high initial bond strength. However, with the upgrading of environmental protection requirements and the iteration of production needs, their inherent drawbacks have become a significant bottleneck for the development of the industry.
[0003] From an environmental and safety perspective, the synthesis of traditional formaldehyde-based adhesives relies on formaldehyde monomers, and the reaction cannot be completely converted, resulting in the continuous release of formaldehyde into the manufactured engineered wood products during use. Excessive indoor formaldehyde concentrations can irritate the respiratory and nervous systems, and long-term exposure may cause health problems such as allergies and weakened immune function, making it one of the main sources of indoor air pollution. Although the industry has reduced release through methods such as adding formaldehyde scavengers and optimizing reaction ratios, achieving "zero formaldehyde" remains difficult, and the additional processing steps increase production costs, weakening product competitiveness.
[0004] From the perspective of production and application convenience, traditional formaldehyde-based adhesives are mostly liquid, which presents key problems such as short shelf life and inconvenient transportation. Liquid adhesives are easily affected by temperature and humidity, resulting in stratification and deterioration. They typically have a shelf life of only 1-3 months and require low-temperature and light-proof storage, increasing warehousing costs. There is also a risk of leakage during transportation, requiring special sealed containers, making logistics costs significantly higher than for solid materials. Furthermore, liquid adhesives require on-site mixing, demanding strict requirements on mixing ratio accuracy and application thickness. Improper operation can easily lead to uneven bonding of boards, affecting product qualification rates.
[0005] From a process complexity perspective, the synthesis of traditional formaldehyde-based adhesives requires strict control of high-temperature and high-pressure reaction conditions, relies on corrosion-resistant specialized equipment, and has a long reaction cycle, high energy consumption, and large equipment investment, making it difficult for small and medium-sized wood-based panel enterprises to afford. While some formaldehyde-free adhesives (such as polyurethane adhesives and isocyanate adhesives) solve environmental protection issues, their raw materials rely on petrochemical products, resulting in high costs. Furthermore, their curing is sensitive to humidity, requiring complex curing equipment that is not compatible with the existing production lines of most enterprises.
[0006] Biomass-based formaldehyde-free adhesives have been a research hotspot in recent years, but they still have significant shortcomings: most biomass raw materials (such as soybean protein and starch) require graft copolymerization and cross-linking modification to improve bonding strength, and the modification process requires the use of chemical reagents and harsh reaction conditions; although some adhesives are environmentally friendly, they must be used immediately after production and cannot be stored for long periods, and they are easily damaged during transportation, making it difficult to achieve large-scale supply. In addition, existing biomass adhesives generally have poor water resistance, requiring precise control of temperature and time during hot pressing, resulting in low adaptability and failing to meet the hot water resistance requirements of plywood.
[0007] In summary, the engineered wood products industry urgently needs to develop an adhesive solution that is environmentally friendly, has a simple process, and is convenient to store and transport. Summary of the Invention

[0110] (3) Hot pressing curing: The pre-pressed sample was hot-pressed and cured for 8 minutes under a hot pressing pressure of 2MPa and a hot pressing temperature of 160℃ to obtain plywood.
[0111] The plywood prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to physical and mechanical property tests on a universal testing machine according to the requirements of the national standard GB / T 17657-2022 "Test Methods for Physical and Chemical Properties of Wood-based Panels and Decorative Wood-based Panels". The main tests were on the bonding strength and water resistance of the plywood. The specific steps are as follows: The plywood was cut into 24 specimens and divided into 3 equal parts for testing. The dry strength, 3-hour warm water (63℃) wet strength (the specimen was immersed in 63℃ water for 3 hours), and 3-hour boiling water wet strength (the specimen was immersed in boiling water for 3 hours) were tested. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0112] Table 1 Note: / indicates that the interface bonding has failed and the wood board has fallen off the adhesive film.
[0113] As shown in Table 1, the dry bonding strength of Examples 1-8 of this invention all exceed 2.30 MPa, with the highest reaching 3.41 MPa (Example 5), which is much higher than that of Comparative Examples 1-3, and no peeling occurred. This indicates that the adhesive film prepared by this invention has excellent cohesive strength and interfacial bonding strength with wood, and can meet the requirements for use in engineered wood products. The plywood prepared in Examples 1-8 of this invention maintains high strength in both hot water and boiling water, fully meeting the strength requirements of Class II plywood (water-resistant plywood) in the national standard GB / T 17657-2022. This indicates that the adhesive layer has excellent resistance to damp heat aging and durability. Furthermore, the method of this invention has a wide process window and good operability, and is suitable for different types of wood (poplar, eucalyptus, beech, birch, etc.) and different production conditions.
[0114] The high strength and water resistance of the adhesive film of this invention originate from the unique cross-linking network design. The carboxyl groups of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and the primary amino groups of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine form amide bonds through electrostatic interaction and heating, constructing a preliminary cross-linking network and giving the adhesive film basic strength. The abundant phenolic hydroxyl groups in tannic acid form strong hydrogen bonds with unreacted amino and carboxyl groups in the adhesive film network, and can further undergo Schiff base reaction, significantly increasing the cross-linking density. During hot pressing, tannic acid undergoes oxidative polymerization. Through the synergy of these three factors, a more stable and hydrophobic interpenetrating network structure of the adhesive film is constructed.
[0115] After the wood veneer is activated by an oxidant, the cellulose / hemicellulose on its surface is oxidized to generate a large number of highly active aldehyde groups. During the hot pressing process, these aldehyde groups covalently bond with the abundant active groups (amine groups, phenolic hydroxyl groups of tannic acid, and quinone groups) in the adhesive film to form stable covalent bonds. Furthermore, under the hot pressing conditions, the adhesive film's bulk network is further cured, tannic acid is oxidized and polymerized, and interfacial chemical bonds are generated simultaneously. These reactions promote each other and work synergistically to ultimately construct a continuous and dense three-dimensional cross-linked network from the adhesive film to the wood interface, thereby achieving a bonding strength and durable water resistance far exceeding that of physical adsorption.
[0116] In summary, this invention successfully prepared a high-performance biomass formaldehyde-free adhesive by constructing a basic network using multifunctional tris(2-aminoethyl)amine and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, followed by secondary reinforcement with natural polyphenolic tannins, and combined with an oxidation activation strategy on the wood surface. Essentially, it constructs a highly cohesive, interfacially bonded, and highly cross-linked adhesive system through the synergistic chemical action of multiple components and steps, achieving high-strength and water-resistant bonding while being environmentally friendly (formaldehyde-free).
