Abstract
The textile industry uses a lot of adhesives to join materials together, and many of these adhesives use petroleum-based ingredients that are harmful to the environment. To replace petroleum-based adhesives with a more environmentally friendly option for the textile industry, this study set out to create and evaluate a hot-melt adhesive derived from cassava starch. By adding kaolin clay as a filler and tannin as a tackifier in different ratios of starch, the created adhesive was enhanced. Tannic acid to starch ratios of 2:1, 6:1, and 10:1 w/w and kaolin to starch ratios of 3:1, 5:1, and 7:1 w/w were used to investigate the effects of clay and tackifier, respectively. The adhesives's viscosity, moisture content, tensile strength, and shear strength were then measured. The presence of kaolin and tannic acid in starch-based adhesives favored a good interaction between the adhesive's ingredients. The adhesive's maximum shear strength was measured at 4.93 ± 0.11 Mpa when dry and 0.263 ± 0.21 Mpa when wet. The current data indicate that the optimal tensile strength was determined to be 3.45 ± 0.22 MPa. This result showed that hot melt adhesives based on cassava starch would be a good environmentally friendly substitute for petroleum-based adhesives, and more study in this field is necessary.

Carbohydr Polym 2024; 339:122247.

Abstract
The escalating demand for environmentally sustainable and cost-effective adhesives in the wood processing and manufacturing sector has prompted exploration into innovative solutions. This study introduces a novel gel adhesive composed of chemically unmodified high-amylose starch (G70, with 68 % amylose content) with a minimal proportion of urea-formaldehyde (UF) (UF/starch = 1:10, w/w). This G70/UF gel demonstrates remarkable adhesive capabilities for wooden boards under both dry conditions (with a shear stress of 4.13 ± 0.12 MPa) and wet conditions (with a shear strength of 0.93 ± 0.07 MPa after 2 h of water soaking). The study unveils that the elevated amylose content in the starch, coupled with a meticulously controlled isothermal process during bonding, is crucial for these enhancements. Specifically, the robust cohesion of amylose chains expedites phase separation between starch and UF, while the isothermal process facilitates the migration and enrichment of UF molecules at the gel-board and gel-air interfaces. Lacking these mechanisms, conventional amylopectin-rich starch/UF gels (27 % amylose content) show minimal improvement. Moreover, the G70/UF gel showcases exceptional fire retardancy. In all, the G70/UF gel presents a promising alternative for plywood production, reducing reliance on unhealthy UF resin while offering satisfactory bonding resistance in diverse conditions and superior flame retardancy.

Abstract
Starch adhesive is a commonly used bonding glue that is sustainable, formaldehyde-free and biodegradable. However, there are obviously some problems related to its high viscosity, poor water and mildew resistance. Hence, exploring a starch-based adhesive with good properties that satisfies the requirements of wood processing presents the context of the current research. Thus, corn starch was used as raw material to form oxidized starch (OCS) via oxidation using sodium periodate, it was reacted with a synthesis polyurea compound that prepared from hexanediamine-urea (HU) obtained by deamination to yield a oxidized starch-hexanediamine-urea adhesive (denoted hereafter as OCSHU). The oxidation process was optimized in terms of oxidant concentration, reaction time and temperature. Furthermore, the impact of HU addition on the mechanical properties of the adhesive was explored. Results indicate adhesive exhibited outstanding shear strength, when 13 % of NaIO4 was used as an oxidant to treat starch at 55 °C for 24 h, and involved in a subsequent reaction with 40 % of HU. The dry shear strength, 24 h cold water strength, 3 h hot water strength and 3 h boiling water strength are 1.84, 1.50, 1.32, and 1.31 MPa. Meantime, OCSHU adhesive solution revealed good storage stability whereas cured resin exhibited mildew resistance. The developed adhesive is a simple and green biomass wood adhesive.

[PMID: 38424220 PMCID: PMC10904814 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-55796-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Chitosan and bio-based epoxy resins have emerged as promising formaldehyde-free replacements for traditional urea-formaldehyde (UF) adhesives in engineered wood products. This study evaluated five chitosan-to-epoxy weight ratios (3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3) as adhesives for hot-pressing medium density fiberboards (MDF) using mixed hardwood fibers. Increasing the epoxy ratio reduced viscosity and gel time, facilitating spraying and fast curing. The density of the formulated MDFs increased with higher epoxy ratios, ranging from 679 kg/m3 for the 3:1 ratio to 701 kg/m3 for the 1:3 formulation, meeting the 500-900 kg/m3 density range specified in EN 323. The 1:3 epoxy-rich formulation enhanced modulus of rupture (MOR) to 31 MPa and modulus of elasticity (MOE) to 2392 MPa, exceeding the minimum requirements of 16 MPa and 1500 MPa set out in EN 310 and EN 316, respectively. Dimensional stability peaked at 5% thickness swelling for the 1:3 formulation after 24 h water soaking, fulfilling the < 25% requirement per EN 316. Internal bond strength reached a maximum of 0.98 MPa for the 3:1 chitosan-rich formulation, satisfying the 0.40 MPa minimum per EN 319. One-way ANOVA tests showed the adhesive ratio had a significant effect on mechanical properties and dimensional stability at 95-99% confidence levels. Duncan's multiple range test revealed the 1:3 ratio boards exhibited statistically significant improvements compared to untreated group. Overall, tailoring the ratios achieved well-balanced properties for MOR, MOE, and dimensional stability, demonstrating potential to replace UF resins.

Abstract
Synthetic adhesives used in the production of plywood are a matter of concern because of the emission of carcinogenic gas formaldehyde, increased environmental pollution, and the depletion of fossil fuels. In this study, a bioadhesive composed of natural rubber latex (NRL) and rice starch was developed. However, rice starch has low moisture resistance, resulting in low adhesion. Thus, to enhance the effectiveness of NRL-blended rice starch-based bioadhesive, rice starch was cross-linked with polymeric 4,4″-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (pMDI) resin, which is an environment-friendly, formaldehyde free, and moisture resistant that is highly compatible with starch. The chemical interaction, viscosity, solid content, and gel time of the developed NRL-isocyanate cross-linked rice starch-based bioadhesive was investigated. The efficacy of the formulated bioadhesive was demonstrated by the fabrication of plywood. The presence of isocyanate and urethane capabilities in the bioadhesive formulations was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The bioadhesive type Iso-A was discovered to have the highest viscosity of 8270 mPa.s, whereas Iso-B has the shortest gel time of 3.46 min and the highest solid content of 44%; the higher solid content accelerates the gel time. In terms of physical and mechanical properties of plywood, Iso-B has the lowest thickness swelling (TS) value of 13%, lowest water absorption (WA) value of 52% and shear strength value of 1.92 MPa, which corresponds to the ISO 12466-2-2007 standard requirements. Based on the results, NRL-blended isocyanate starch-based bioadhesive could be a good potential raw material for eco-friendly plywood industries with adequate accuracy.

Abstract
Starch is one of the important raw materials for the preparation of biomass adhesives for its good viscosity and low-cost properties. However, the drawbacks of poor water resistance and bonding performance seriously restrict its application in the wood industry. To resolve those problems, an environment-friendly renewable, and high water resistance starch-based adhesive (OSTH) was prepared with oxidized starch and hexanediamine by Schiff base reaction. In order to optimize the adhesive preparation process, the effect of different oxidation times and oxidant addition on the mechanical performance of plywood were investigated. In addition, the curing behavior characteristics, thermomechanical properties, and thermal stability of the OSTH adhesives were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) were used to explain the reaction mechanisms involved. The results show this adhesive has an excellent bonding performance at the oxidation time of 12 h with 11 % (w/w, dry starch basis) NaIO4 as an oxidant. The dry shear strength, 24-hour cold water, and 3-hour hot water (63 °C) soaking shear strength of the plywood bonded with this resin were respectively 1.87 MPa, 0.96 MPa, and 0.91 MPa, which satisfied the standard requirement of GB/T 9846-2015 (≥0.7 MPa). Thus, this study provided a potential strategy to prepare starch-based wood adhesives with good bonding performance and water resistance.

Abstract
Starch adhesive, as a sustainable biomass-based adhesive, could be used to solve environmental problems from petroleum-derived adhesive. But its application is hindered by poor water resistance, mildew resistance, and storage stability. Here, a fully bio-based citric acid-starch adhesive (CASt) with high properties was successfully introduced by a simple method. Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) determined that esterification of citric acid (CA) and starch (St) occurred to form a stable three-dimensional crosslinking structure, which strengthened water resistance and bonding strength of the starch adhesive. Compared with native starch (100 %), the soluble content of cured CASt was 1-16 %. CASt adhesive has well storage stability and high mildew resistance. Even after being stored for 5 months, the CASt-1 adhesive (mass ratio of CA/St = 1:1, and reaction time = 1 h) still have good liquidity. And its hot water strength (1.05 ± 0.22 MPa) also satisfied the standard requirements (≥0.7 MPa). The exhibited CASt adhesive is eco-friendly with components from plant resources, which performed as a bright alternative that can substitute petroleum-based adhesives in the artificial board industry.

Abstract
As a byproduct of bromelain extraction procedures, pineapple stem flour is underutilized. Since water glues derived from gelatinization typically have poor mold resistance, this study aims to produce flour-based value-added products, such as mold-resistant water-based adhesives. To address this issue, this study explored the use of apple cider vinegar (ACV) as a low-cost, non-toxic, commercially available antifungal agent to improve the mold resistance of adhesives. Furthermore, laurate flour was produced via a transesterification of the flour and methyl laurate using a K2CO3 catalyst. Both the unmodified flour and the functionalized flour were employed to prepare water-based adhesives. For both flour systems, adding ACV at concentrations of at least 2.0% v/v enhanced the mold resistance of the adhesives and completely inhibited the development of A. niger mycelia for up to 90 days of storage. The adhesives made from the transesterified flour exhibited a higher shear strength for the paper bonding (ca. 8%) than the unmodified ones. Additionally, the ACV additive had no negative effects on the shear strengths of the water-based adhesives. All of the flour-based adhesives developed in this study had a higher shear strength for paper substrates than two locally available commercial water glues.

Abstract
This Feature Article evaluates ongoing efforts to adapt adhesives toward the goal of zero-waste living and suggests the most promising future directions. Adhesives are not always considered in zero-waste manufacturing because they represent only a small fraction of a product and offer no additional functionality. However, their presence restricts the reintegration of constituent parts into a circular economy, so a new generation of adhesives is required. Furthermore, their production often leads to harmful pollutants. Here, two main approaches toward addressing these problems are considered: first, the use of natural materials that replace petroleum-based polymers from which conventional adhesives are made and second, the production of dismantlable adhesives capable of debonding on demand with the application of an external stimulus. These approaches, either individually or combined, offer a new paradigm in zero-waste industrial production and consumer applications.

Abstract
The interest in the development of biobased adhesives has increased due to environmental concerns. Moreover, as the production of engineered wood products (EWPs) is expected to grow, the wood adhesives market needs to transit toward formaldehyde-free products. Cellulose nanoparticles (CNPs) are a material with unique properties and advantages for producing hybrid materials as biobased wood adhesives. Besides their traditional use as reinforcing additives, CNPs can be incorporated at the beginning of the polymerization reaction to form in situ polymerized hybrid adhesives with better mechanical and physicochemical properties than the neat adhesive. Despite their outstanding characteristics, CNPs are still an emerging nanomaterial in the wood adhesive field, and the studies are incipient. This review explores the utilization of CNPs in heterogeneous polymerization for the production of polyvinyl acetate, polymeric isocyanates, waterborne polyurethane systems, and other waterborne polymer latexes. The main challenges are discussed, and some recommendations are set down for the manufacture of these novel hybrid nanocomposites.

Abstract
A water-resistant polyamide-oxidized starch-methyl methacrylate (P-OS-M) adhesive with zero formaldehyde-emission was successfully synthesized, using natural corn starch, KMnO4, polyamide and methyl methacrylate as raw material, oxidant, crosslinking agent and comonomer, respectively. The P-OS-M25 adhesive synthesized with the optimal amount of methyl methacrylate (25 ml) could reach wet shear strength of 1.04 MPa, which was far greater than natural starch (NS) and oxidized starch (OS). Fourier transforms infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed that polyamide and methyl methacrylate were successfully cross-linked and copolymerized with oxidized starch. In addition, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), rheology, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and contact angle respectively indicated that P-OS-M adhesive was suitable for wood adhesives in terms of thermal stability, viscosity, morphological and water resistence. These advantages increased the possibility of P-OS-M adhesive instead of petroleum-based wood adhesives.

Effect of Glue Spreads on the Structural Properties of Laminated Veneer Lumber from Spindleless Rotary Veneers Recovered from Short Rotation Hevea Plantation Logs. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:polym13213799. [PMID: 34771357 PMCID: PMC8587114 DOI: 10.3390/polym13213799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2021] [Revised: 08/24/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Unproductive young rubber trees (15 years old) with smaller diameters (15 to 18 cm) compared to conventional rubber logs, harvested at the age of 25 years old, were selected for the production of laminated panels. Spindleless rotary veneer peeling was applied to logs from short-rotation rubber forest plantations to produce veneers for structural purposes. This raises questions about the utilization of these small-diameter logs with respect to its effect on the quality of veneer and laminated panels produced. This study examines the effect of the glue spread rates on the physical and mechanical properties of rubberwood laminated veneer lumber (LVL). Analysis of variance shows that the application of a 280 g/m2 glue spread rate significantly improved the density, water absorption and dimensional stability of rubberwood LVL. The mechanical properties of rubberwood LVL produced with a 200 g/m2 glue spread rate met the minimum requirement for the 2.1E-3100F stress class; 91.05 MPa for the modulus of rupture in the flatwise direction and 50.23 MPa for compressive strength parallel to the longitudinal axis. The modulus of elasticity in the flatwise direction of 11,189.55 MPa reached the minimum requirement for the 1.5E-2250F stress class.

Arias A, Feijoo G, Moreira MT. Evaluation of Starch as an Environmental-Friendly Bioresource for the Development of Wood Bioadhesives. Molecules 2021; 26:4526.

Abstract
The environment is a very complex and fragile system in which multiple factors of different nature play an important role. Pollution, together with resource consumption, is one of the main causes of the environmental problems currently affecting the planet. In the search for alternative production processes, the use of renewable resources seeks a way to satisfy the demands of resource consumption based on the premises of lower environment impact and less damage to human health. In the wood sector, the panel manufacturing process is based on the use of formaldehyde-based resins. However, their poor moisture resistance leads to hydrolysis of amino-methylene bonds, which induces formaldehyde emissions throughout the lifetime of the wood panel. This manuscript investigates the environmental profile associated with different wood bioadhesives based on starch functionalization as a renewable alternative to formaldehyde resins. Considering that this is a process under development, the conceptual design of the full-scale process will be addressed by process modeling and the environmental profile will be assessed using life cycle assessment methodology. A comparative study with synthetic resins will provide useful information for modify their development to become real alternatives in the wood-based panel industry. The results obtained show the enormous potential of starch bioadhesives, as their environmental impact values are lower compared to those based on petrochemicals. However, certain improvements in the energy process requirements and in the chemical agents used could be developed to provide even better results.

Functional nanoparticle reinforced starch-based adhesive emulsion: Toward robust stability and high bonding performance. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 269:118270. [PMID: 34294302 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Sustainable bio-based adhesive is a promising substitute for petroleum-based adhesives to alleviate serious environmental and health problems. In this work, a nanoengineered starch-based adhesive was fabricated by grafting vinyl acetate (VAc) onto starch molecule and subsequently incorporating the functional nanoparticle [TiO2-coupling-poly(butyl acrylate, BA), TKB] to overcome the drawbacks present in conventional nanocomposite adhesive. Results showed that the presence of BA altered the surface property of TKB, leading to improved dispersion. In the adhesive with 4% (mass ratio to starch) TKB, TKB aggregates played the role as a sliding bridge, which significantly promoted the storage stability and shear strength in both dry and wet states. Additionally, the latex film with 4% TKB exhibited high compatibility and water resistance due to the promoted hydrophobicity. This study provides a fundamental insight into the improvement of functional nanoparticles on the performance of starch-based adhesive, suggesting a novel strategy for designing high-performance bio-adhesive.
