Description
Summary:Citric acid's potency to be adhesive is proven with an increasing quality of product bonding resulted from wood and other lignosellulosic materials. Wood waste, bagasse, sorghum and corn stalks, and bamboo are quality particleboard materials after addition of 20% citric acid. Moulding made of a mixture of tree bark and citric acid with the same concentration is also able to pass repeated boiling test without having any damage. Ester bond between wood's hydroxyl group and citric acid's hydroxyl group is formed at 180ºC and gets more optimal as the pressing temperature increases during production process. This results in an increase of board's physical-mechanical properties pursuant to the standard. Some researches remain presenting non-standard test parameters and this is a challenge to be answered with further research. The density of Samama wood impregnated with 10% citric acid has its density increased between 17.11% and 20.13%. Samama wood does not experience a recovery of set after it has been pressed for 50 minutes at 180°C.
