Description
Summary:Natural adhesives made from non-fossil resources are expected to grow significantly in the future. This study analyzes the effects of maleic acid (MA) content and particle size class on the physical and mechanical characteristics of sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor ) biomass particleboard (SBMA-particleboard) as potential materials for table tennis blade. MA content was varied in the range of 5 to 20 wt%, while SBMA-particleboard were manufactured using various particles size class and target densities of 300 mm × 300 mm × 0.6 cm and 600 kg/m 3 , respectively. The result showed that the physical and mechanical properties of SBMA-particleboard improved with increasing MA content of 15 wt%. Furthermore, the MA content of 15 wt% effectively manufactured SBMA-particleboard, while the powder particle class provided higher dimensional stability and internal bond due to the more extensive contact area. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis showed the presence of ester linkages, indicating a reaction between the carboxyl groups of MA and the hydroxyl of the sorghum biomass to provide good physical and mechanical properties for SBMA-particleboard as potential materials for table tennis blade.
