“…Addressing such issues, it is high time to thinking about the alternative practice in the replacement of the conventional adhesive-based products for the end-users [5]. To eliminate these concerns, many researchers have been investigating the properties of binderless particleboard (BPB) made from agricultural residues such as kenaf core, oil palm, sugarcane bagasse, rice straw, almond, and coconut husks [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

This study investigated the effects of processing parameters, namely particle mixing ratios, press temperatures, and time for the manufacturing of jute stick binderless particleboard (JBPB). Different ratios of fine and coarse particles, press temperature (160 to 240 °C) and press time (4 to 10 min) were used for JBPB fabrication with a target density of 0.9 g/cm3. The dimensional stability and mechanical properties of JBPB were determined according to Japanese Industrial Standard JIS A 5908 (2003). The result shows that the most favorable pressing conditions in the manufacturing process were press temperature of 220 °C for 6 min with a mixing ratio of 50:50 (fine: coarse). The modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), and internal bonding (IB) of JBPB was 16.35 N/mm2, 3872.99 N/mm2, and 1.07 N/mm2, respectively, which met the minimum requirement for type-18 of particleboard JIS A 5908 (2003) except for the value of MOR. The bonding mechanism was analyzed by the chemical changes in the raw materials after the fabrication of JBPBs. The pentosans present in the raw material decreased with the increased press temperatures. In this study, the hemicellulose was decomposed which may accelerate the self-bonding of the JBPB at high temperatures. The thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed that the JBPB showed good thermal stability with the increase of press temperatures. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra indicated that the removal of hydroxyl groups which increased the dimensional stability of JBPBs. Hence, it could be concluded that by controlling particle mixing ratio (50:50) at high press temperature with proper press time, high-performance jute stick binderless particleboard could be successfully developed which has a variety of applications.

“…The principle reason for the changes in wood properties is the alternations in wood chemistry as a result of exposure to high temperature [11]. Reduction in equilibrium moisture content (EMC) is the main observation in the heat treated wood as a result of thermal treatment and has been intensively studied and reported by several researchers [12][13][14][15][16]. Apart from that, improvement in decay resistance against biodeterioration agents such as fungi and termites is also one of the most prominent properties of heat treated wood [14][15][16].…”

“…Recently, heat treatment in oil medium was reported to be a green and excellent method to improve wood properties. Since then, much attention has been given to studying the effects of oil heat treatment on the chemical and mechanical properties of wood and improving wood properties by heat treatment with various industrial vegetable oils, such as linseed, palm, coconut, rapeseed and soya 17–21 . However, there are limited studies on bamboo modification by heat treatment in oil medium.…”

The search for green and sustainable modification method to produce durable bamboo materials remains a challenge in industry. Here, heat treatment in tung oil at 100–200 °C was employed to modify bamboo materials. Oil permeation and distribution in the structure of bamboo samples during heat treatment were explored. The synergistic effects of tung oil and heat treatment on the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of bamboo materials, and their mutual relationships were also investigated in detail. Results showed that the tung oil heat treated bamboo not only had an enhanced hydrophobic property and dimensional stability, improved fungi resistance, but also displayed good mechanical performance. Compared with the untreated sample, the water-saturated swelling reduced from 3.17% to 2.42% for the sample after oil heat treatment at 200 °C, and the contact angles of the sample after oil heat treatment at 200 °C can keep >100° after 300 s in radial direction. Such improvement can be attributed to changes of chemical components, increased crystallinity structure, and the formation of oily films inside or over the bamboo surface. Therefore, tung oil heat treatment can be a highly promising technology for bamboo modification in the industry.
