Effects of Medium Density Fiberboards (MDF) Recycling Methods on Fiber Dimensions and Some Reconstructed Board Properties

In this study, different methods, including acid hydrolysis (phosphoric and formic acid), thermohydrolysis, and microwave methods were tested for recycling of fiberboards made of 100 % beech and 70 % beech + 30 % pine wood fibers, which are widely sold in the market.

Zusammenfassung:In this study, different methods, including acid hydrolysis (phosphoric and formic acid), thermohydrolysis, and microwave methods were tested for recycling of fiberboards made of 100 % beech and 70 % beech + 30 % pine wood fibers, which are widely sold in the market. The impacts of the using methods on the fibers were investigated with the help of a device that determines the fiber dimensions according to optical principles. In a laboratory setting, test boards were constructed using recycled fibers, and the changes in certain physical and mechanical qualities were studied. As a result, it was determined that recycled fibers obtained from microwave and thermo-hydrolysis fibers could be effectively used in fiberboard production. However, the proportion of fibers, longer than 1.24 mm, was decreased by about 30 % with the phosphoric acid method for MDF samples composed of 100 % beech fiber. The fiberboards could not be obtained from fibers recycled through acid hydrolysis except for phosphoric acid method with 100 % beech fibers. U radu se istražuju različite metode recikliranja ploča vlaknatica kao što su kiselinska hidroliza (uz pomoć fosforne i mravlje kiseline), toplinska hidroliza i mikrovalne metode. Reciklirani su uzorci ploča vlaknatica izrađenih od 100 % vlakana drva bukve te ploča vlaknatica izrađenih od 70 % vlakana drva bukve i 30 % vlakana drva crnog bora. Ploče vlaknatice takvog sastava uvelike su zastupljene na tržištu. Utjecaj metoda recikliranja na vlakna istraživan je uz pomoć uređaja kojim se određuju dimenzije vlakana na optičkim načelima. Ploče od recikliranih vlakana izrađene su u laboratorijskim uvjetima i na njima su promatrane promjene određenih fizičkih i mehaničkih svojstava. Utvrđeno je da se reciklirana vlakna dobivena mikrovalnim metodama i toplinskom hidrolizom mogu učinkovito primjenjivati u proizvodnji ploča vlaknatica. Međutim, kiselinskom hidrolizom uz dodatak fosforne kiseline u uzorcima izrađenim od 100 % bukovih vlakana udio vlakana duljih od 1,24 mm smanjuje se za oko 30 %. Ploče vlaknatice nisu se mogle proizvesti od recikliranih vlakana dobivenih kiselinskom hidrolizom. Za njihovu proizvodnju pogodna su se pokazala samo reciklirana vlakna od 100 % bukovih ploča vlaknatica srednje gustoće dobivena kiselinskom hidrolizom uz dodatak fosforne kiseline.
