Development of hydrolysed protein-based plywood adhesive from slaughterhouse waste: effect of chemical modification of hydrolysed protein on moisture resistance of formulated adhesives

Chemical modification of hydrolysed SRM peptides by esterification reaction significantly improved the water resistance property of peptides-PAE resin-based plywood adhesive.

The Influence of the Corn Straw Content on the Physical Properties of Magnesium Oxycholride Cement-Based Board Materials

This paper studies the effect of straw content on the density, thermal conductivity, water-absorbing rate, and water resistance properties of the board materials when increasing the content of corn straw in magnesium oxycholride cement-based board materials. The result shows that the density, thermal conductivity and water-absorbing rate of the magnesium oxycholride cement-based board materials increase as the corn straw content increases, however, its water resistance property decreases dramatically. In conclusion, when the corn straw content is 25%, softening coefficient of the magnesium oxycholride cement-based board materials drops to 0.65, the appropriate straw content is 25% at the most for the materials under this improved method.

Development of A Novel Elasticoluminescent Material with Calcium Aluminosilicate

We successfully developed a novel elasticoluminescent (EML) material with water resistance, CaAl2Si2O8:Eu2+ (CAS). The crystal structure, photoluminescence (PL) and EML properties were characterized for both CAS and the typical EML material SrAl2O4:Eu2+(SAO). Contrary to SAO, CAS showed superior water resistance property. No changes were found in the XRD patterns, and the PL, EML intensities, during the whole examination of water immersion test.
