“…The hydrophobicity induced by vegetable oils was utilized for example by Sitz et al in the production of low density fibre boards. 72 The boards were produced from fibres either made from wheat or from soy straw and from an adhesive based on the epoxidised sucrose ester of soybean oil fatty acid and 4,4′methylenediphenyldiisocyanate (MDI). In the case of wheat fibreboards, the addition of the soybean resin decreased the mass absorption of water after 2 h from 50% to 26% and the thickness swelling after 2 h from 41% to 24%.…”

“…ESS‐based resins demonstrate great promise in a variety of applications, including a replacement for carcinogenic, non‐bio‐based resins in packaging applications. In a recent study, ESS resin was shown to be able to replace up to 50 wt% of petroleum‐based products in low density fiberboard 67 . Increasing the ESS content up to 50 wt% of the total resin blend demonstrated no impact on the strength or stiffness of the resulting low density fiberboard.…”

“…Increasing the ESS content up to 50 wt% of the total resin blend demonstrated no impact on the strength or stiffness of the resulting low density fiberboard. Although factors that rely on interfacial strength were impacted with the addition of 25–50 wt% of ESS resin, the replacement of methylene diphenyl diisocyanate resin with ESS resin has limited impacts on the properties of low density fiberboards 67 . In addition to use in low density fiberboards, ESS resins have potential in replacing conventional epoxy resins in biocomposites with flax fiber reinforcement.…”

Environmental concerns and the need for sustainable industrial practices have sparked the search for alternative materials that offer a lower impact on the environment. Over the course of the past few decades, numerous bio‐based polymers have been developed from natural resources. Among the materials, bio‐based thermosets are of particular interest due to their increased thermal stability in comparison to thermoplastics. This review covers recent advancements made in the field of bio‐based thermosets, with a special focus devoted to resins prepared from vegetable oils, natural phenolic compounds and a selection of other thermosetting systems developed recently based on either the polymerization of multifunctional monomers or the crosslinking of linear systems. This review article concludes with a critical perspective on the environmental implications of bio‐based thermosets. © 2020 Society of Industrial Chemistry

“…ese reuse schemes can make full use of excess straw resources and alleviate environmental pressure. Several studies have shown that it is technically feasible to utilize the straw for fiberboard production [9,10]. Crop straw can replace wood materials to produce fiberboard with different densities (low, medium, and high densities), which has good mechanical properties and saves forest resources [11].…”

Crop straw, as a widely used biomass resource, can be processed to produce renewable energy and green products. However, about 70% of straw were burned in the open air, causing serious environmental pollution and air pollution. In order to reduce the burden on the environment, the different straw management strategies are comparatively studied and evaluated by applying the life-cycle assessment (LCA) method. Within the system boundary from cradle to grave, three alternative scenarios, including straw particleboard, straw cement-bonded particleboard, and straw direct combustion power generation, are compared with the current common treatment (straw open burning). e comprehensive inventory analysis on each treatment scenario is carried out indepth, and the corresponding resource consumption and environmental impact of each treatment scenario are calculated, respectively. e LCA results showed that the environmental impacts of reusing crop straw to produce straw particleboard and cement-bonded particleboard (Scenario 1 and Scenario 2) is significantly reduced by 6% and 10%, by comparison with the use of wood resource. Greenhouse gas emissions from straw direct combustion power generation (Scenario 3) processes are reduced by 30% compared with coal power generation. From the environmental point of view, the scenario of straw particleboard product has the smallest impact on the environment, while straw open burning is not an advisable way due to the highest environmental impact from the highest greenhouse gas emissions and acidification effects. From the perspective of energy consumption, the energy consumption for the combustion power generation is the smallest in all scenarios. It is suggested that governments are supposed to construct reasonable scenarios for the straw disposition based on the local development status and condition. e research results can provide scientific guidance for the management strategy of the comprehensive utilization of straw resources.
