Title: Analysis of Adhesive Penetration into Wood using Nano-X-ray Computed Tomography

Abstract

This paper focused on the penetration of adhesive into cell lumens and cell walls. Douglas-fir samples containing an iodinated phenol-formaldehyde adhesive were analyzed using nano-X-ray computed tomography (XCT), X-ray fluorescence microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy to observe adhesive penetration in cell walls. A gradient of penetration was observed within the cell wall structure. Finally, in addition, these nano-XCT datasets were indexed to previous micro-XCT datasets, which gave the ability to link the nanoscale cell wall penetration to microscale penetration in to the porous network of cell lumens.

Quantitative wood–adhesive penetration with X-ray computed tomography

Journal Article Paris, Jesse L. ; Kamke, Frederick A. - International Journal of Adhesion and Adhesives

Micro X-ray computed tomography (XCT) was used to analyze the 3D adhesive penetration behavior of different wood–adhesive bondlines. Three adhesives, a phenol formaldehyde (PF), a polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (pMDI), and a hybrid polyvinyl acetate (PVA), all tagged with iodine for enhanced X-ray attenuation, were used to prepare single-bondline laminates in two softwoods, Douglas-fir and loblolly pine, and one hardwood, a hybrid polar. Adhesive penetration depth was measured with two separate calculations, and results were compared with 2D fluorescent micrographs. A total of 54 XCT scans were collected, representing six replicates of each treatment type; each replicate, however, consisted of approximatelymore »« less

X-ray computed tomography of wood-adhesive bondlines: Attenuation and phase-contrast effects

Journal Article Paris, Jesse L. ; Kamke, Frederick A. ; Xiao, Xianghui - Wood Science and Technology

Microscale X-ray computed tomography (XCT) is discussed as a technique for identifying 3D adhesive distribution in wood-adhesive bondlines. Visualization and material segmentation of the adhesives from the surrounding cellular structures require sufficient gray-scale contrast in the reconstructed XCT data. Commercial wood-adhesive polymers have similar chemical characteristics and density to wood cell wall polymers and therefore do not provide good XCT attenuation contrast in their native form. Here, three different adhesive types, namely phenol formaldehyde, polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and a hybrid polyvinyl acetate, are tagged with iodine such that they yield sufficient X-ray attenuation contrast. However, phase-contrast effects at material edgesmore »« less

X-ray methods to observe and quantify adhesive penetration into wood

Journal Article Jakes, Joseph E. ; Frihart, Charles R. ; Hunt, Christopher G. ; ... - Journal of Materials Science

To accelerate the development of new and improved wood adhesives for engineered wood products, the optimal penetration of adhesives into wood needs to be determined. Adhesive penetration includes both the flow of adhesives into wood micron-scale voids and the infiltration into the polymer components of the wood cell wall layers. In this work, X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) were used to study adhesive flow and infiltration. Model wood-adhesive bondlines were made using loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) latewood substrates and bromine-substituted phenol formaldehyde (BrPF) resins with different weight average molecular weight (M_W). The Br substitution facilitated bothmore »« less

Micro- and macro-scale characterization of nano-SiO2 reinforced alkali activated slag composites

Journal Article Long, Wu-Jian ; Xiao, Bing-Xu ; Gu, Yu-Cun ; ... - Materials Characterization

Highlights: • Combined advanced micro-scale measurements were used to predict properties of NS AASC. • NS enhances both the macro- and micro-mechanical properties of AASC. • Combination of MIP and XCT facilitates a complete characterization of pore structure. • Combined tools at multi-scale provide efficient approaches to optimize material design. - Abstract: The effect of nano-SiO{sub 2} on the micromechanical properties and microstructure of alkali-activated slag cement (AASC) composites was investigated. The investigation involved the use of: (i) nanoindentation to determine the elastic properties of the constituent phases using statistical deconvolution; (ii) scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopymore »« less

Examination of the Penetration of Polymeric Methylene Di-Phenyl-Di-Isocyante (pMDI) into Wood Structure Using Chemical-State X-ray Microscopy

Journal Article Buckley, C ; Phanopoulos, C ; Khaleque, N ; ... - Holzforschung

The penetration behavior of isocyanate-based wood resins was evaluated using x-ray microscopy. Aspen wood pieces were bonded together in a controlled manner. These were embedded in a methacrylate-based resin and thin sections were prepared, cut from the transverse face of the wood composite. X-ray images of these sections were prepared at several selected x-ray energies to allow the isocyanate, cellulose, lignin and the embedding agent distributions to be mapped. The isocyanate resin was found to penetrate deeply into the wood. The resin enters large cell lumen, and wicks along the inner cell wall surfaces. The resin accesses connected cells viamore »« less
