Utilização de resíduos da espécie Dipteryx polyphylla (Cumarurana), Dipteryx odorata (Cumaru) e Brosimum parinarioides (Amapá) na produção de painéis de madeira aglomerada com resina poliuretana à base de óleo da mamona

Abstract

The wood processing industries use generates a timber of about 40% of the total volume of the processed timber, and the remainder in other words 60% are used in boilers and brickworks for a power generation, especially in some areas of North. However, the burning of waste wood there generating other residue, ash, whose destination is a landfill. This paper presents a study on the potential use of three types of tropical wood waste, Cumarurana (Dipteryx polyphylla), Cumaru (Dipteryx odorata) and Amapá (Brosimum parinariensis), the production of particleboard, using polyurethane resin based on castor oil as a binder. There was a chemical and physical characterization of the waste based on TAPPI standard. In the first stage waste Cumarurana panels (1000 and 1300 g) were produced by keeping the resin content 15%. The mechanical results of these panels were below the requirements of the NBR ABNT 14810-2 (2006). In the second stage panels Cumaru and Amapá were produced according to a factorial design, in different conditions of amount of residue (1000 to 1500g) and content of resin (10-15%) and these were characterized by tests based on the physical and mechanical standard NBR ABNT 14810-3 (2006). For panels Cumaru, the factorial design showed that the waste is a significant factor (95% confidence) at its maximum level (1500g) to increase the compaction ratio. Mechanical analysis (MOR, MOE and Face Screw) showed that both the residue and the resin are significant factors in the levels studied indicating that higher values are obtained at higher levels (1500 g, 15%). For all these tests the values obtained in 1500 g of panels are in accordance with normative standards. For the panels with waste Amapá by the experimental design, it was observed that the residue and the resin are significant factors, when the response variable and MOE and MOR, indicating that the best results are obtained using mechanical greater amount of waste. However, only the results of MOR for panels 1300 and 1500 g a 15% were above of the normative requirements. The internal adhesion tests were within the normative standards for both panels Cumaru and Amapá.
