Abstract

In recent decades, the establishment of reforestation areas with native species has been driven by a new consumer market aware of environmental issues, Tachigali vulgaris wood has been investigated for this purpose. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of T. vulgaris wood as a raw material for homogeneous particleboards agglomerated with castor oil-based polyurethane resin (PU-Castor) and urea-formaldehyde (UF). The chemical composition, basic density (Db), and pH of the wood's total soluble extractives were determined. Static bending and perpendicular tensile tests were carried out to determine the modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), and internal bond (IB). X-ray densitometry, bulk density (BD), thickness swelling (TS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) before and after accelerated weathering (AW) tests were carried out. The physical and chemical results of the wood (lignin: 23.8%; holocellulose: 76.3%; total extractives: 4.2%; ash: 0.6%; Db; 525.5 kg.m-3; pH: 5.5-5.8) corroborate those in the literature. The physical and mechanical results were compared to the ANSI A208.1:2016 and ISO 16893:2016 standards. The performance of the PU-Castor panel (TS: 29.2%; MOR: 6.0 MPa; MOE: 514.7 MPa; IB: 1.9 MPa; BD: 473 kg.m-3) was superior to that of UF (TS: 21.5%; MOR: 2.4 MPa; MOE: 215.7 MPa; IB: 0.8 MPa; BD: 461 kg.m-3), being classified as an LD-2 type panel according to ANSI A208.1:2016. The SEM images show the degradation of the panels after cycles of humidity and temperature variation. The characteristics of T. vulgaris wood make it suitable for producing homogeneous particleboards.
