Sound Absorption and Physical Properties of Carbonized Fiberboards with Three Different Densities

Characteristics of carbonized fiberboard such as chemical materials absorption, electromagnetic shielding, and electrical and mechanical performance were determined in previous studies. The carbonized board therefore confirmed that having excellent abilities of these characteristics. In this study, the effect of density on physical properties and sound absorption properties of carbonized fiberboards at were investigated for the potential use of carbonized fiberboards as a replacement of conventional sound absorbing material. The thickness of fiberboards after carbonization was reduced 49.9%, 40.7%, and 43.3% in low density fiberboard (LDF), medium density fiberboard (MDF), and high density fiberboard (HDF), respectively. Based on SEM images, porosity of carbonized fiberboard increased by carbonization due to removing adhesives. Moreover, carbonization did not destroy structure of wood fiber based on SEM results. Carbonization process influenced contraction of fiberboard. The sound absorption coefficient of carbonized low density fiberboard (c-LDF) was higher than those of carbonized medium density fiberboard (c-MDF) and carbonized high density fiberboard (c-HDF). This result was similar with original fiberboards, which indicated sound absorbing ability was not significantly changed by carbonization compared to that of original fiberboards. Therefore, the sound absorbing coefficient may depend on source, texture, and density of fiberboard rather than carbonization.

Effect of Carbonization Temperature on Hygric Performance of Carbonized Fiberboards

ABSTRACT Increases of public attention on healthy environment lead to the regulation of indoor air quality such as Clean Healthy House Construction Standard. This standard covers emission of total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) (e.g., formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene), ventilation, and use of environmentally-friendly products or functional products. Moisture absorption and desorption abilities are a recommended functionality for improving indoor air quality. In this study, moisture absorption and desorption capacities of carbonized board from wood-based panels and other materials were determined by using UNT-HEAT-01 according to ISO 24358:2008. Pine had higher moisture ab-sorption and desorption capacities (49.0 g/m 2 and 35.3 g/m, respectively) than hinoki cypress, cement board, gypsum board, oriented strand board, and medium density fiberboard (MDF). The moisture absorption and desorption capacities differed considerably according to the wood species. After carbonization process at 400℃, the absorption and de-sorption ability of MDF increased to 38% and 60%, respectively. However, moisture absorption and desorption capaci-ties decreased with increasing carbonization temperature, but they were still higher than original MDF.) Therefore, it is suggested that carbonization below 600℃ can improve moisture absorption/desorption capacities.

Developing of Sound Absorption Composite Boards Using Carbonized Medium Density Fiberboard

선행연구에서 다양한 목질 보드류를 열분해하여 다공질 탄화보드 제조에 성공하였고, 높은 난연성, 전자파차폐성, 원적외선방사, 폼알데하이드 흡착성, 흡음성능을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 경제성과 흡음성이 뛰어난 탄화 중밀도 섬유판(MDF)을 선택하여 보다 높은 흡음성능을 부여하기 위해 다른 흡음재료에도 사용 중인 샌딩처리와 타공기법을 시도하였다. 또한 개선된 흡음성능을 바탕으로 실제 음향판을 제작하여 그 음향적 효과를 파악하였다. 탄화 MDF를 십자모양(타공 5개), 직사각형모양(타공 9개), 일자모양(타공 5개)으로 타공 처리한 후, 흡음률을 측정한 결과, 무처리 탄화 MDF의 흡음률은 14% 정도를 나타내었고, 직사각형모양 타공 시편이 16.01%로 흡음률이 가장 높았고 십자모양 타공 시편이 15.68%, 일자 타공 시편은 14.25%의 흡음률을 나타내어 그 효과가 미미하였다. 반면에, 탄화 MDF의 표면을 각 1, 2, 3 mm로 표면샌딩 처리후 흡음률을 측정한 결과, 무처리 시편(13%)에 비해 65% 증가한 21.7% (1 mm 샌딩), 21.83% (2 mm 샌딩), 19.37% (3 mm 샌딩)를 확인하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 실대형 탄화보드 복합 음향판을 제작하였으며 잔향실법으로 흡음시험한 결과 감음계수 0.45로 높은 흡음성능을 발휘하여 상업화도 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 【In the previous study, a variety of wood-based panels was thermally decomposed to manufacture carbonized boards that had been proved to be high abilities of insect and fungi repellence, corrosion and fire resistant, electronic shielding, and formaldehyde adsorption as well as sound absorption performance. Based on the previous study, carbonized medium density fiberboard (c-MDF) was chosen to improve sound absorption performance by holing and sanding process. Three different types of holes (cross shape, square shape, and line) with three different sanding thickness (1, 2, and 3 mm) were applied on c-MDF and then determined sound absorption coefficient (SAC). The control c-MDF without holes had 14% of SAC, however, those c-MDFs with holes had 16.01% (square shape), 15.68% (cross shape), and 14.25% (line) of SAC. Therefore, making holes on the c-MDF did not significantly affect on the SAC. As the degree of sanding increased, the SAC of c-MDF increased approximately 65% on sanding treated c-MDFs (21.5, 21.83, and 19.37%, respectively) compared to the control c-MDF (13%). Based on these results, composite sound absorbing panel was developed with c-MDF and MDF (11 mm). The noise reduction coefficient of composite sound absorbing panel was 0.45 which was high enough to certify as sound absorbing material.】

Evaluation in Physiomechanical Characteristics of Carbonized Oriented Strand Board by Different Carbonizing Conditions

Environmental issues about indoor air quality have been increased and focused on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) caused cancer, asthma, and skin disease. Reducing VOCs has been attempted in many different methods such as using environmentally friendly materials and air cleaner or purifier. Charcoal is well known material for absorbing VOCs. Therefore, carbonized board from medium density fiberboard has been developed. We assumed that the source of carbonized boards can be any type of wood-based panels. In this study, carbonized boards were manufactured from oriented strand board (OSB) at 400, 600, 800, and . Each carbonized OSB (c-OSB) was evaluated and determined physiomechanical characteristics such as exterior defects, dimensional shrinkage, modulus of elasticity, and bending strength. No external defects were observed on c-OSBs at all carbonizing conditions. As carbonizing temperature increased, less porosity between carbonized wood fibers was observed by SEM analysis. The higher rate of dimensional shrinkage was observed on c-OSB at (66%) than c-OSB at 400, 600, and (47%, 58%, and 63%, respectively). The densities of c-OSBs were lower than original OSB, but there was no significant different among the c-OSBs. The bending strength of c-OSB increased 1.58 MPa (c-OSB at ) to 8.03 MPa (c-OSB at ) as carbonization temperature increased. Carbonization temperature above yielded higher bonding strength than that of gypsum board (4.6 MPa). In conclusion, c-OSB may be used in sealing and wall for decorating purpose without additional artwork compare to c-MDF which has smooth surface.

Characteristics of Volatile Organic Compounds and Aldehydes Emission from Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.)

Based on fundamental properties and machining characteristics of Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.), it has well performance on machinability or workability, drying, and fine surface. Additionally, yellow poplar is light weight and has bright color with high performance of bending processing, so it could be used for furniture or artworks materi- als and wood-based panel materials. Recently, public attention has been focused on indoor air quality, and Ministry of environment drift more tight regulation on indoor air quality for an apartment house and public facility with the times. Construction materials has been assessed emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde according to law (No.10789), so yellow poplar is also needed to assess these emission characteristics. Emission of VOC and alde- hyde compounds from dry and green wood condition of yellow poplar were investigated with KS M 1998:2009. Based
