A designer's work is based on creativity, innovation, and fresh ideas therefore, they are constantly searching for creative designs, especially when it comes to furniture internal design. Meanwhile, innovative materials actively sought after by designers usage in interior In this scope, our study explores the practical implications of using date palm fronds plastic waste from drinking water bottle create a composite with varying loadings frond nanoparticles (DPFNP) at 10, 20, 30 wt. % its applications desktop extruder was used form composites into filaments, which were subsequently 3D-printed specimens. The impact adding composite's mechanical, thermal, chemical properties assessed. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste, filament presented similar FTIR spectra; however, increased thermal stability mechanical strength. 10 wt.% DPFNP has been effectively printed 3D printer, demonstrating practicality employing developed filaments perhaps encouraging new uses As result, recycled PET (RPET) matrix offers cheap substitute making filaments. It could increase use printing design more environmentally friendly materials. This result will be considered first phase future research investigation full-scale prototype, examining physical, properties.

Epoxy as an Alternative Resin in Particleboard Production with Pine Wood Residues: Physical, Mechanical, and Microscopical Analyses of Panels at Three Resin Proportions

Forests, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 16(2), P. 196 - 196

Published: Jan. 22, 2025

Given the construction challenges and impacts of industrial waste generation implications using chemical adhesives, this study aims to evaluate epoxy as an alternative resin, whose application in production wood particleboards is still underexplored. In regard, its results were compared with those widely used such urea-formaldehyde (UF). Pine particles used, resin was applied a binder 5%, 10%, 15% proportions. Panels manufactured under pressing parameters 5 N/mm2 for 10 min at 110 °C. Physical mechanical properties panels evaluated Brazilian, European, American standards. The showed that potentially convenient particleboard industry, trait met P4 class criteria Brazilian European standards D-2 code, 10% achieved M-3i document. Although 5% adhesive insufficient envelop particles, these traits greater percentages reached high enveloping ratings scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test, making viable panel industry potential formaldehyde-based adhesives.

Use of Eucalyptus urophylla waste as raw material in composite particleboards

Maderas Ciencia y tecnología, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 27

Published: Feb. 11, 2025

Eucalyptus urophylla (ampupu) is one of the most commonly cultivated species in Brazil for industrial scale particleboard production. This study investigates reuse sawmill waste as a raw material manufacturing, addressing growing need sustainable solutions. Without prior particle homogenization, two manufacturing approaches were tested: single-layer and three-layer boards. Using castor-oil-based polyurethane resin (10 % 12 boards), panels pressed at 5 MPa 10 minutes 100 °C. Performance evaluation under standards revealed that multilayer demonstrated superior mechanical physical properties, while boards did not meet classification standards, highlighting benefits optimizing wood compositions.
