โœฆ Synopsis

Dimensional stability of fiber board from lignocellulosic materials is a prime concern for efficient utility of the product. A number of methods have been used to improve the dimensional stability. These include the application of coating, oil, and wax treatments and chemical modification of lignocellulosic materials. A new process has been developed to minimize irreversible swelling (i.e., permanent fixation of compressive deformation of wood fiber through a hygrothermal treatment using in-built steam from moisture of compressed fiber at high temperature). This process has been applied on jute fiber for the evaluation of dimensional stability and vis-a `-vis the mechanical and thermal properties of the fiber board made from the modified jute fiber.

Jute fibers were chopped to approximately 100 mm in length and then processed through a granulator having an 8-mm screen. Final fiber lengths were up to 10 mm maximum. These fibers along with polypropylene granules and a compatibilizer were mixed in a K-mixer at a fixed rpm, 5500, and dumped at a fi

Jute slivers were acetylated in pilot scale following a no catalyst-no solvent method at 120ยฐC for 2 h. The weight % gain was found to be 11.37. Different jute boards were pressed under heat and pressure using acetylated jute sliver and urea formaldehyde resin. Neutral salt (NaCl), acid salt (NH 4 C
