Interaction of Wax and UF Resin in MDF: Qualitative Analysis of the Relationships Between Wax and Resin on MDF Fibre
Abstract
Both resin and paraffin wax are essential additives in the manufacture of composite panels such as MDF board. The integrity of panels is retained by the action of cured resin binding the fibre matrix with wax acting as a water repellant. While resin is only added to fibre after defibration,wax can either be added via the refiner or the blowline in the MDF process. During the MDF process,there is potential for resin and wax to come into contact with each other. However the extent,if any,of wax and resin interactions in the final panel are currently unknown. At Forest Research,where UF resin and wax have previously been independently visualised using confocal microscopy,a new procedure has been developed specifically for the simultaneous visualisation of both wax and UF resin in panels and on unpressed fibre. This technique,which utilises confocal microscopy coupled with image analysis,has enabled the quantification of coverage and distribution of both resin and wax on fibre as well as establishing the extent of wax-resin interactions. The technique can be used in two ways. Firstly it can be used for describing the location of wax and resin e.g. the coverage of fibres with wax and resin,the drop sizes and the spatial overlap between the two(quantitative analysis). Secondly,using a higher magnification the technique can also be used to describe how wax and resin interact with each other and how each of them influences the movement of wax or resin on and within the fibre(qualitative analysis). This paper will concentrate on the second part and closely examine the interaction between wax and resin.
