Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) according to the preamble of claim 1, with reduced emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and at the same time low thickness swelling.
  • Volatile organic compounds subsume organic substances whose boiling point is between 50 ° C and 260 ° C. Most of the volatile organic compounds come from the wood, but sometimes also from the binder. The interaction between binder and wood also influences the composition of the volatile constituents; other influencing factors are the production conditions of the medium-density fiberboard. Wood-based materials also emit formaldehyde. However, formaldehyde is not included in the definition of volatile organic compounds.
  • Lignocelluloses can be woods and annual plants.
  • thermomechanical process also the production of fibers by the chemo-thermo-mechanical process (CTMP process) is from the EP 0 639 434 known.
  • CMP process chemo-thermo-mechanical process
  • wood chipping products such as Wood chips washed first to remove any existing sand particles. After washing, the wood chips are usually pre-steamed at temperatures between 60 ° C and 80 ° C and then get via screw conveyance in the so-called cooker, where they are usually digested thermohydrolytically at temperatures of 170 ° C to 180 ° C.
  • the digested chips are transferred to a pressure refiner, where they are fiberized under pressure at temperatures of 170 ° C to 180 ° C.
  • the defibering in the pressure refiner can be followed by a non-pressurized refining stage.
  • the digestion conditions can be varied depending on the raw material; for annual plants, lower temperatures of 140 ° C to 160 ° C can be used for digestion.
  • the fibers are conveyed by the pressure prevailing in the refiner into a blow pipe, where they are provided with a binder.
  • chemicals such as sodium sulfite and sodium hydroxide, or combinations of sodium sulfite and sodium hydroxide, are added to the wood chippings before or during digestion. The addition of other chemicals is possible.
  • binders for the production of medium-density fiberboard mainly amino resins such as urea-formaldehyde resins (UF resins) are used, other synthetic binders such as alkaline curing phenol-formaldehyde resins (PF resins) and adhesives based on polymeric diisocyanates (PMDI), however, have only a relatively small importance , It is also possible to use thermoplastic binders such as methacrylate reaction resins for bonding fibers.
  • the binder used for the production of MDF is often injected into the blast line, but it can also be applied after drying the fibers in a blender.
  • Combinations of the two methods are also possible, so only a part of the binder can be injected into the blowing line and the rest are applied only after drying in the blender. It can also enter the blowpipe Binder of certain composition introduced and used after drying another binder with different composition.
  • binders based on natural substances such as tannin-formaldehyde resins (TF resins) can be used for the production of MDF.
  • the TF resins are obtained by reaction between tannins and formaldehyde.
  • the tannins in particular the condensed tannins, are obtained by extraction from certain barks and woods. Particularly suitable for this Quebrachoholz (Quebracho colorado) and bark such as acacia bark (Acacia mearnsii), spruce bark (Picea abies), etc.
  • the extraction of tannins from wood and bark is usually carried out at temperatures between 70 ° C and 130 ° C in water in the cascade process according to the countercurrent principle.
  • binders During extraction, chemicals such as sodium sulfite and / or sodium hydroxide may also be added to predominantly increase the solubility of tannin in the water. The sulfitation of tannin can also take place after the extraction.
  • the extracted tannins are reacted with formaldehyde.
  • starch As another natural binder, starch can be used in various forms (native starch, oxidized starch, modified starch). Also combinations of tannin and starch are known as binders.
  • the volatile degradation components of the wood, coming from the refiner, may be partially emitted during the drying of the fiber to the environment since they are steam volatile. Furthermore, the volatile acids can act as a hardener and partially precondens the injected binder in the blowpipe and optionally during drying. This leads to reduced adhesion of the binder during pressing.
  • the non-volatile degraded carbohydrates formed during digestion remain in the fiberboards produced and may reduce their biological resistance.
  • the DE 101 24 638 A1 describes a process for producing tanning-bonded lignocellulosic plates from used chipboard and fibreboard in which shredded products from the used plates are digested with tannin solutions in a concentration between 1% and 30% in the temperature range between 70 ° C and 200 ° C, dried, spread into mats and be pressed hot.
  • the aim of the process is to produce medium-density fiberboard with the binder tannin-formaldehyde resin without previously controlling tannin with formaldehyde to produce tannin-formaldehyde resins.
  • the decomposition of used wood chips and used wood fiber boards releases formaldehyde and reacts with the aqueous diluted tannin solution to form tannin formaldehyde resin.
  • the object of the invention is firstly to reduce the amount of volatile constituents from medium-density fiberboard and their formation ' largely to prevent and on the other hand, the physico-technological properties of the plates produced to improve. In particular, the thickness swelling of the plates should be reduced.
  • This method with a combined application of CTMP and the presence of tannins is suitable for all lignocelluloses.
  • the addition of chemicals in the sense of the CTMP process can be carried out prior to digestion or during the digestion in a known manner.
  • sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfite and sodium hydroxide or optimized mixtures thereof may be used. Since sodium sulfite and sodium bisulfite can sulfite the tannin and increase its solubility in the water, this procedure makes it possible to combine the digestion and defibration of wood chips with the sulfitation of the condensed tannin in the refiner in a meaningful manner.
  • pine wood chips were digested at a temperature of 170 ° C, in the fiberization stage under pressure in the refiner condensed tannins were added to the wood chips before digestion in amounts of 2% (solid based on atro wood material) (Experiment 2).
  • the dried fibers were usually mixed with the UF resin Glueing amounts of 12% (solid resin based on dry fibers), shaped into fiber mats and hot pressed into medium-density fibreboard (see Experiment 1).
  • the plates thus prepared were then at 20 ° C and 65% rel. Humidity stored before they were tested for their physical-technological properties and emission.
  • medium density fiberboards were made from fibers prepared by adding 1% Na 2 SO 3 and 0.5% NaOH (solid based on dry wood material) according to the CTMP method.
  • the digestion temperature was 170 ° C.
  • the production of the MDF was carried out under the same conditions as in the case of the TMP fibers (see Experiment 1).
  • binders for the production of medium-density fibreboards can be those which lead to a moisture-resistant fiber-to-fiber bond as well as those which lead to fiber-to-fiber bonding with low moisture resistance.
  • Typical binders for the production of moisture-resistant adhesives are alkaline curing phenol-formaldehyde resins (PF resins), tannin-formaldehyde resins (TF resins), melamine-urea phenol-formaldehyde resins (MUPF resins) and adhesives based on PMDI (polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanates). Binders that result in low moisture resistance fiber-to-fiber bonding include urea formaldehyde resins (UF resins).
