A review of thickness swelling in particleboard

Wood Science and Technology, 1970
This paper reviews the literature on thickness swelling of particleboard. Thickness swelling is directly affected by many process variables, but interactions between variables can change basic behavior. Durability depends on low swelling and a high resin content is the best way to control thickness swelling on the basis of past work.

Measurement of Changes in Thickness of Compressed Cotton Samples During Swelling

Textile Research Journal, 1973
An apparatus is described for measurement of vertical dimension of cotton samples immersed in water, methanol, tiquid ammonia, and NaOH solution. Increase in thickness of cotton showed recovery from compression and swelling. The increases were automatically recorded as a function of time by a chart recorder.

Moisture absorption and thickness swelling behaviour of luffa fibre/epoxy composite

Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2019
The present work aims to study the moisture uptake and thickness swelling behaviour and its effect on tensile and flexural properties of Luffa cylindrica epoxy composite. Characterizations of the luffa fibre surface were carried out by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Composites were

Dimensional stability and irreversible thickness swell of thermally treated oriented strandboards (OSB)

European Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2014
This paper discusses thickness swell and irreversible thickness swell properties after immersion in water for 24, 48, 96 and 168 h, changes in equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and determination of dimensional changes associated with changes in relative humidity of laboratory-made methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI)-bonded oriented strandboards (OSB)

Relationship between thickness swelling and mat structures in robot-formed flakeboard mats

Holz als Roh- und Werkstoff, 2001
The relationship between thickness swelling and mat structures in robot-formed flakeboard mats under humid conditions with consideration of the density/overlaps in the flakeboard and the absorbed moisture has been studied. Results show a highly correlated linear relationship between thickness swelling and relative moisture content.

Water Absorption and Thickness Swelling of Laminated Composite after Cured at Different Angle

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
Moisture absorption is a very important factor in polymers and composite materials used for hull manufacture and stability in marine environment. High water absorption of the material will affects the mechanical properties and stability in composite. This research is carried out to study the feasibility of the gravity effects on curing position of the ...

Thickness swelling and water absorption of WPC after immersion in cold and boiling water

European Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2013
Thickness swelling (TS), water absorption (WA) and edge swelling (ES) of 20 mm flat-pressed wood–plastic composites (WPC) panels with a wood flour (WF) content of 50 and 70 % manufactured using an industrial single-daylight press and samples of a high pressure laminate (HPL) compact panel were determined after immersion in cold water according to EN ...

Measuring the thickness swelling and set-recovery of densified and thermally modified Scots pine solid wood

Journal of Materials Science, 2013
The purpose of this study was to analyse the fundamental phenomena related to the swelling behaviour of densified and thermally modified wood under changing moisture content, as well as to investigate the differences in recovery behaviour between four different methods: (i) soaking–drying cycles, (ii) soaking–drying cycles in hot water, (iii) water ...

Effect of Sand Cushion Thickness and Lateral Extension on Heave of Remolded Swelling Soil

2020
Swelling soil is one of the most common problematic soils. Swelling phenomenon can cause severe damage to the overlying lightly loaded structures. Many alternatives have been proposed to mitigate the effects of expansive soil on civil foundations such as pre-wetting, sub-drainage, hydraulic barriers, chemical stabilization, and mechanical treatments ...
