Pressing Operation

The hot pressing operation is one of the most important operations in medium density fibreboard (MDF) manufacture. Complicated dynamic interactions occur during pressing, including heat transfer, moisture movement, development of gas pressure, internal stress development and relaxation, wood consolidation, resin curing, bonding between particles and eventual development of a non-uniform density distribution through the panel thickness. Consequently the mat experiences continuously changing internal conditions (temperature and moisture content) as the pressing operation proceeds. The vertical density profile (VDP) has a major influence on the MDF strength and physical properties. This influence of the VDP on the board properties is generally recognised, but the formation of the density profile and their specific effects on the board performance have proved difficult to quantify. A mathematical model based on theoretical analysis and experimental information is being developed. In the model, the mat is divided into a number of thin parallel layers. The deformation of each layer is a function of stress, temperature and moisture content of the layer. The model incorporates the variation of the mat mechanical and rheological properties with moisture content and temperature. The changes in temperature and moisture content are provided by a separate heat and mass transfer model. The present model can predict stress, strain, layer deformation and density across the thickness during pressing. The performance of the model was validated by experiments conducted in a pilot-scale press. Twelve MDF boards were made with different pressing parameters, and the VDP were measured and compared with the simulation results from the model. The model could predict the density profile with an acceptable accuracy for the main variables that control the manufacturing of MDF boards.

The Impact

To study the impact of VDP on the bending process of fiberboard, this paper deeply researched into the dynamic changes of section stress distribution of fiberboard during the process of loading and bending and built a static bending strength predicting model, which is based on the piecewise function by simulating fiberboard VDP, theory of elasticity and plasticity, lamella inter-bedded theory and VDP model. The results show: The bending process of fiberboard can be divided into two stages which are elasticity period and elasticity-plasticity period. The latter includes both elasticity region and plasticity region, and compression region comes to elasticity bending before pulling region. The curve of bending section stress distribution is nonlinear and affected by loads and VDP. Critical section stress distribution of bending breakage and breakage load can be predicted by VDP with other condition unchanged. The value of static bending strength predicted by model is basically consistent with testing data. And the static bending strength is closely related to qualification factors of VDP. Fiberboard with high average density doesn’t always contain high static bending strength. VDP is a significant physical parameter which has impact on the bending process and performance of fiberboard, so it must be optimized and controlled in production according to for specific purpose. Key words: fiberboard, vertical density profile, section stress distribution, bending strength, predicting model

Paulownia Wood

Abstract. The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of high-pressure (HP) treatment on the mechanical performance properties of Paulownia ( spp.) wood boards. The boards were HP treated at selected pressures (20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 MPa) for 30 s. A special vacuum-packing technique that sandwiched the test boards between two steel plates was used for the HP treatment to prevent board distortion. Thickness, density, vertical density profile (VDP), cell wall percentage (VC), porosity percentage (VH), surface roughness, hardness, and abrasion resistance were evaluated to assess the performance properties of the treated and untreated boards. HP treatment resulted in 45.7% to 60.0% reduction in thickness of the boards, while it increased the density by 88% to 170%. The VDP of densified boards was distributed uniformly, and core densities were only slightly higher than surface densities. HP treatment made the Paulownia board surfaces much smoother, and three roughness parameters were reduced with increasing treatment pressure level. Hardness values of the boards were improved by 84% to 173%. The mass loss values of HP treated wood samples in abrasion tests were significantly reduced by 40.7% to 75.0%. The results of this study demonstrate that HP treatment is a useful method to improve the end-use properties of low-density wood like Paulownia. Keywords: Abrasion resistance, Hardness, High-pressure densification, Paulownia wood boards, Vertical density profile, Surface roughness.
