Abstract

The ongoing twin transition of the wood-based panel industry towards a green, digital, and more resilient bioeconomy is essential for a successful transformation to decarbonize the sector and implement a circular development model, transforming linear industrial value chains to minimize pollution and waste generation, and providing more sustainable growth and jobs. This green transition represents an opportunity to place the wood-based panel industry on a new path of more sustainable and inclusive growth, tackling climate change and reducing its dependence on fossil-derived raw materials, thus improving the industry's resource efficiency and security. It provides examples of the most recent advances and technological developments in the design, production, characteristics, and current and future applications of sustainable, eco-friendly wood and wood-based composites with enhanced properties and a reduced carbon footprint. It is intended for material scientists, wood scientists, environmental scientists, graduate and postgraduate students in Wood Science and Technology, as well as wood-based panel industry professionals. In addition, the content is relevant to government authorities and stakeholders working in the domain of sustainable wood value chains, aimed at achieving Sustainable Development Goals and enhanced contribution of the forest-based sector to long-term climate change mitigation.

Abstract

Wood is one of the traditional materials used in construction applications, and there is a wide range of engineered wood products available for construction. Engineered wood is a wood product derived from wood waste and byproducts such as sawdust from hardwoods and softwoods. Engineered wood types include particleboard, plywood, fiberboard, oriented strand board (OSB), laminated veneer lumber (LVL), glued laminated timber (GLT), and cross-laminated timber (CLT). This book provides a detailed introduction to the development history of engineering wood and its raw materials, applications, and advantages and disadvantages. It also compares different types of engineering wood and discusses modification of engineering wood, testing standards for mechanical properties of engineering wood, anti-corrosion, and degradation.

Abstract

This dissertation by Van Chinh Tran explores innovative uses of wood and lignin in organic electronics (OE) to develop sustainable electronic devices. The work highlights the potential of conductive wood and lignin nanoparticles as active materials in energy storage and electronic applications, including the creation of the world's first wooden transistor. The study emphasizes the need for greener technologies in response to the growing demand and environmental impact of traditional electronics, proposing wood-based alternatives that are renewable and environmentally friendly. The research is aimed at advancing low-cost, sustainable solutions in the field of organic electronics.

Abstract

Lignin, found in the cell walls of trees and plants, is the second-most naturally abundant biopolymer. It is composed of alkyl-aromatic polymer units. This book describes the composition and structure of lignin, strategies for its chemical modification, and studies of biopolymer lignin. It also discusses the synthesis and characterization of lignin, methods for degradation, applications in various materials, and prospects for further development. Other topics covered include the role of lignin in thermosetting and thermoplastic materials and its technical and economic potential for generating green biofuel as an energy source for industrial plants and in the manufacture of fine chemicals.

Abstract

Erstmals wurden neue Verbinder aus Kunstharzpressholz (KPH) realisiert. Zu Beginn erfolgte eine Oberflächenbehandlung des KPH, um die Reibung zwischen Verbinder und Holzbauteil in den Scherfugen zu erhöhen und somit die Tragfähigkeit der Verbindung deutlich zu steigern. In Reibversuchen wurden Reibeiwerte der Oberflächen ermittelt. In anschließenden Druck-Scher-Versuchen wurde das Verhalten der Oberflächen in Verbindungen mit geneigt eingedrehten Vollgewindeschrauben untersucht. - For the first time new connectors were realized using densified veneer wood (DVW). Initially, the DVW surface was modified to increase the friction between the connector and the timber part in the shear plane and thus significantly increase the load-carrying capacity of the connection. Friction tests were carried out to determine the friction coefficients of the surfaces. Based on the friction tests, the behavior of the surfaces in combination with inclined screws was investigated.
