Definitions

  • Australian Patent Specification 510,845 describes a reconsolidated wood product formed from at least one flexible open lattice work web of naturally intercon ⁇ nected wood strands generally aligned along a common grain direction, a substantial proportion of said strands being substantially discrete but incompletely separated from each other; said web having been consolidated' by compression whilst substantially maintaining the wood strands aligned along said common grain direction and said strands being bonded together to hold them in juxtapositions assumed pursuant to said consolidation.
  • That patent specification also describes a process for forming a reconsolidated wood product from a flexible open lattice work web of naturally inter ⁇ connected wood strands, said web being formed by partially rending natural wood so that said strands are generally aligned along a common grain direction, a substantial proportion of said strands being sub- stantially discrete but incompletely separated from each other, said process comprising compressing the web to consolidate the strands whilst maintaining them such as to substantially extend in said original grain direction and bonding said strands together to hold them in juxtapositions assumed pursuant to said consolidation.
  • the invention seeks to provide an improved process as above described and which permits a more economical use of bonding agent as used to bond the web strands together.
  • the invention contemplates effecting the compression step as in the process of Specification 510,845, by a first pressing causing application of compressive force in one direction- transverse to the direction of extent of the grain of the web, at least partially releasing said compressive force, followed by a further pressing to effect compression either in said one direction or in a direction transverse thereto and also transverse to said direction of extent of the grain.
  • Figure 1 is a diagram showing steps in the process as described in Patent Specification 510,845 for forming a reconsolidated wood product
  • Figure 2 illustrates a method of adhesive appli ⁇ cation involving prior wax coating
  • Figure 3 is a diagram showing a variation of the process shown in figure 2; and Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating a preferred method of effecting compression of webs to form a reconsolidated wood product in accordance with this invention.
  • the resultant web shown at 14.in figure 1, is of flexible open lattice work form, individual strands maintaining the original grain direction of the wood.
  • Adhesive is then applied to the webs 14 such as by immersion in a suitable liquid adhesive in a bath 16 as shown. After removal of excess adhesive (by means not shown) , a plurality of webs 14 are assembled together such that the individual webs in the assemblage are aligned in a common grain direction in a suitable mould 18.
  • the assemblage of thus aligned webs is then consolidated in mould 18 such as by compression between the base of the mould and an upper press element 20 as shown, and the adhesive is cured, to form the final product 22.
  • Product 22 is characterized in that it comprises a plurality of wood strands which remain naturally interconnected and which extend generally in the original grain direction of the wood.
  • the strands are bound together by the adhesive but " are positioned in somewhat displaced relative locations as compared with the positions occupied in the original log 10.
  • the product 22 has been found to be particularly satisfac ⁇ tory as it possesses good mechanical properties, due to the relatively small degradation of the original wood structure which is caused by the process, as well as good nailability and a generally pleasing appear ⁇ ance.
  • FIG 2 there is shown dia- grammatically an additional process step in accordance with this invention and which is not shown in the process as just described in figure 1. That is to say, before the application of adhesive in the bath 16, the surfaces of the webs 14 are coated in a bath 100 containing a liquid wax as shown at step 102 in figure 2.
  • a suitable liquid wax may be an emulsion of paraffin wa_ in water but other types of liquid wax may be used.
  • the webs are removed therefrom, drained then dried as indicated at steps 103 and 104 in figure 2, and then passed to the aforementioned adhesive bath 16 as shown at step 105 in figure 2.
  • the webs are removed, drained as shown at step 106 and then placed, for example, in the mould 18 (step 107) .
  • the webs are then subjected to pressure as previously described, whereafter, with the pressure maintained, the adhesive is permitted to cure. These latter steps are represented at 108 in figure 2. Thereafter, the formed final product 22 is removed.
  • wax coating as effected in bath 100 minimizes the amount of subsequent adhesive pick up so cutting down the required amount of adhesive.
  • a further benefit from coating the webs 14 with wax is that the presence of wax thereon increases the resistance of the final product 22 to the ingress of water and thus in use enhances the durability of the resultant product.
  • Figure 3 shows a variation of the process of figure 2 as applied in the case where the adhesive is a two-part composition.
  • the adhesive may comprise a first component in the form of a solution of tannin powder in water and a second component in the form of a suitable activator such as hexamine dissolved in water.
  • the tannin solution may be mixed with the wax to form the bath 109 shown in figure 3 into which, at the step 110 shown, the webs 14 are immersed then removed therefrom.
  • the webs are then drained (step 111) prior to subsequent drying (step 112) , and passed to a bath 114 of the aforementioned activator (step 113) .
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a preferred method in accordance with this invention for effecting the consolidation step in figure 1.
  • the webs 14 are first laid in a first press 118, (the webs being viewed end-on in figure 4) .
  • the webs 14 are then pressed from opposed sides in the press 118 by application of a pressure PI which may be sufficient to, for example, compress the webs to about 50 percent of the desired final density. Thereafter, the pressure is released so that some expansion of the material again occurs.
  • a pressure PI which may be sufficient to, for example, compress the webs to about 50 percent of the desired final density.
  • the dimension of the webs may be reduced to the dimension Dl shown.
  • a second step re-expansion to a dimension D2 is permitted by release of pressure PI to a lesser pressure P2.
  • the pressure P2 may be provided simply by releasing the hydraulic pressure so that only the weight of the compressing structure bears against the webs 14.
  • the webs 14 may be removed and placed in a second press 120 which is arranged to permit application of a pressure P3 in a direction which is transverse to the initial direction of application of pressure in press 118.
  • P3 may be arranged to be such as to complete the final product and bring it to the desired end density and thickness D3. Curing of the adhesive bonding the webs 14 together may be allowed to be completed in the press 120 whilst the pressure P3 is maintained.

Abstract

Procédé de formage d'un produit de bois reconsolidé (22) à partir d'une bande de treillis ouvert élastique de brins de bois interconnectés. On applique un agent adhésif sur la bande, qui est ensuite soumise à compression pour consolider la bande et former le produit (22). Une cire est appliquée sur la bande (14) avant l'application de l'agent adhésif, pour limiter la quantité d'agent prélevée. La compression de la bande (14) est effectuée une fois dans une direction généralement perpendiculaire au plan médian de la bande et une fois dans une direction allant d'un bord à l'autre. La force de compression ne peut être libérée que partiellement, pendant un certain temps, après la première compression.
