COMPATIBILITY OF FOUR EASTERN CANADIAN WOODS WITH GYPSUM AND GYPSUM-CEMENT BINDERS BY ISOTHERMAL CALORIMETRY

In order to determine the feasibility of manufacturing wood-gypsum and wood-gypsum-cement particleboards, the hydration reactions of four Eastern Canadian wood species with gypsum and Portland cement were studied. The compatibility of hot water extracted and raw wood particles with both gypsum and a...

COMPATIBILITY OF FOUR EASTERN CANADIAN WOODS WITH GYPSUM AND GYPSUM-CEMENT BINDERS BY ISOTHERMAL CALORIMETRY
description In order to determine the feasibility of manufacturing wood-gypsum and wood-gypsum-cement particleboards, the hydration reactions of four Eastern Canadian wood species with gypsum and Portland cement were studied.

The four species were found to be compatible and suitable for the manufacturing of inorganic-bonded wood composite boards on the basis of the compatibility factor. The hot water extractive content was low in the four species and did not have a consistent impact on the compatibility factor.

Hot water extraction of the wood particles and the addition of Portland cement to the wood-gypsum mixture significantly reduced the time required to reach the maximum heat flux.
