Abstract
This study uses soda lignin to modify it with furfural as adhesive on the physical and mechanical properties of plywood Poplar wood. Producing plywood, pure Lignin (L.100%), lignin-furfural 30% (L.70-F.30), lignin- furfural 60% (L.40-F.60) were used as the adhesive at three different levels ( 120 140 160gm2) accompanied with ammonium chloride (1%) as the hardener and wheat flour (30%) as the filler based on the dry weight of the adhesive. Plates made with urea formaldehyde resin at 160 g/m2 were produced as control samples. characteristics of adhesives included solid material percentage, viscosity, specific weight and PH were measured. After producing the laboratory boards, the physical and mechanical properties of samples, such as thickness swelling after 2 and 24 hours of being soaked in water, shear strength, modulus of rupture, and modulus of elasticity were measured. The results indicate that independent and interactive effects of adhesive and its consumption level on the physical and mechanical properties of plywood are not statistically significant. And in all cases, the control boards had better properties than the lignin adhesives
