Chemical Modification of Wood by Polyglycerol/Maleic Anhydride Treatment
-
, , , , and
Summary
Polyglycerol (PG), an agricultural by-product of diester industry, was reacted with maleic anhydride (MA) to give heat curable compounds which are useful for impregnating wood to improve biological resistance, dimensional stability and strength. The relationships between reaction conditions of polyglycerol/maleic anhydride (PG/MA) adduct treatment and performance of treated solid wood were investigated. Conditions recommended for producing PG/MA treated wood durable for a long time are vacuum/pressure impregnation of aqueous solutions of PG/MA adduct (30%) in the presence of 2-butanone peroxide (2%) and cobalt naphthenate (2%).
