Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of particleboard technology, specifically relating to a high-strength flame-retardant particleboard and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Particleboard is a type of engineered wood product. It is made from wood processing residues, small-diameter timber, and wood chips, which are processed into wood chips using specialized equipment. These chips are then mixed with adhesives (such as urea-formaldehyde resin) and pressed under high temperature and pressure. Particleboard has a uniform structure, a smooth surface that is easy to laminate or paint; it has good sound absorption and heat insulation properties; good lateral load-bearing capacity; and it is inexpensive with high raw material utilization.

[0003] Particleboard has significant defects in mechanical and flame-retardant properties, limiting its application in high-end and specialized engineering fields. In terms of mechanical properties, the primary defect of particleboard is its insufficient nail-holding power. Because the board is made of interwoven wood chips and adhesives, its internal structure is not as dense as solid wood. When a nail is screwed in, the wood chips are easily crushed rather than forming a tight thread, resulting in low screw holding power and pull-out strength, making it particularly unsuitable for connectors that are repeatedly disassembled and reassembled. Secondly, its bending strength and modulus of elasticity are limited, making it prone to creep and even breakage under concentrated loads; for example, as a bookshelf shelf, it will show significant sagging deformation after long-term use. Furthermore, particleboard has poor transverse tensile strength (internal bond strength), and if the manufacturing process is not properly controlled, delamination and cracking can easily occur at the glued interface between the wood chips. Regarding flame-retardant properties, as a wood-based material, the organic components of particleboard (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin) are naturally flammable, with a limiting oxygen index typically only 20-25%, making it extremely easy to ignite and rapidly spread flames. More seriously, the board contains a large amount of organic adhesives such as urea-formaldehyde resin, which decompose and release flammable gases at high temperatures, further fueling the fire. Currently common flame-retardant modification methods, such as adding phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardants to the raw materials, can improve fire resistance time, but they significantly degrade the mechanical strength of the particleboard. This is because the poor compatibility between flame retardants and adhesives weakens the bonding interface between the wood chips, leading to a further decrease in internal bond strength and nail-holding power. Simultaneously, flame retardants are prone to moisture absorption and migration, not only reducing the long-term flame-retardant stability of the board but also exacerbating its inherent defect of swelling when exposed to moisture.

[0085] The preparation method of the high-strength flame-retardant particleboard is carried out according to the following steps:

[0086] (1) Preparation of wood shavings: The wood is peeled, sieved, and impurities are removed. The wood is then put into a pulverizer and processed into wood shavings to obtain wood shaving raw material. The wood shavings are 100 mm long, 30 mm wide, and 0.4 mm thick.

[0087] (2) Preparation of Glue-mixed wood shavings: Dry the wood shavings raw material, place it in a drum mixer, add modified soybean gum, modified guar gum and halloysite nanotubes, stir at 800 r / min for 2 h, add curing agent, stir at 1500 r / min for 2 min, and dry to a moisture content of 4 wt% to obtain Glue-mixed wood shavings.

[0088] (3) Preparation of particleboard: The glue-mixed wood chips are laid into a single layer of board blank, placed in a steel film frame, and placed in a hot press for hot pressing, demolding and curing to obtain particleboard; the hot pressing pressure is 4MPa, the hot pressing time is 8min, and the hot pressing temperature is 130℃.

[0089] Experimental example:

[0090] According to GB / T 17657-2022 "Test Methods for Physical and Chemical Properties of Wood-based Panels and Decorative Wood-based Panels", the internal bond strength (MPa) of the particleboard prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was determined. The experimental results were statistically analyzed using SPSS 24.0 software. Quantitative data were analyzed using... (mean ± standard deviation) represents the mean. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to test the normality of the data. For normally distributed data, a t-test was used to compare the differences in means between two groups, with P < 0.05 considered statistically significant. The results are shown in Table 1.
