PROCESS FOR PREPARING AN ADHESIVE FORMING COMPOSITION
Patent Number/ Registration Number: 1592
Status of Application: Expired
Agency: Forest Products Research and Development Institute (FPRDI)
Field /Industry: Composite board
Brief Description/Features of the Technology:
This invention relates to a new base product known as Tanpowderflourdust which is an important ingredient of binder for particleboard (chipboard) and adhesive for plywood manufacture. It is prepared from raw waste materials such as husks of coconut (Cocos nucifera), and barks of kamachile (Pithecolobium dulce), ipil-ipil (Leucaena glauca), bakauan (Rhizophora spp.), tañgal (Ceriops tañgal) and other cathecol tannin bearing species. By changing the physical state of the raw materials into a new product, Tanpowderflourdust which consists of very fine, discretely arranged particles, the tannin is exposed on the surface of the particles and eveready for active chemical reaction.
Advantages:
Local binder
Market Potential:
