Abstract

Sengon is one of the fast-growing wood that dominates Indonesian plantation forests and has been used as industrial raw material, fuel, and construction material. To enhance the physical characteristics of sengon wood, it needs technology of wood quality improvement, such as impregnation method by using Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Beside to enhance the quality of sengon wood, this technology can also expand the utilization of fast-growing wood. The presented research aims to examine the effects on physical and magnetic properties of sengon wood after being treated by magnetite nanoparticles impregnation. Magnetite nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation method with a precursor solution of iron ions mixture and weak base (NH4OH). The treatments of the magnetic wood consisted of 3 different concentrations that is untreated, 1% and 5% magnetite nanoparticles impregnation solution with demineralized water as a dispersant. Dimensional stability parameters, such as weight percentage growth, bulking impact, and effectiveness against swelling are increasing along the increase of concentration. Characterization tests such as SEM–EDX analysis showed the existence of Fe deposition in the wood cell membranes and pores of the wood. XRD analysis showed the appearance of magnetic peaks in the diffractogram in accordance with the decreased of crystallinity while the concentration increased and FTIR analysis showed Fe-O functional groups. Sengon wood magnetic was identified based on the VSM study, as a superparamagnetic components with mild magnetic characteristics.

Abstract

Magnetic wood with good electromagnetic wave absorption properties was prepared by comparing synthetic and commercial nano-magnetite (Fe3O4-NP) as sengon (Falcataria moluccana) wood impregnation solution. The co-precipitation method produced a synthetic nano-magnetite with NH4OH as a weak base precursor. Meanwhile, the commercial one was purchased from a supplier. Three levels of nano-magnetite concentration (1%, 2.5%, and 5%) were dispersed in deionized water. The impregnation process was done by applying a vacuum of 0.5 bar for 120 minutes, followed by a pressure of 1 bar for 120 minutes. The results showed that the commercial nano-magnetite caused more improvements in weight percent gain, density, and hardness than the synthetic nano-magnetic, although they were insignificantly different. There was also a reduction in brightness with the overall color change being categorized into other colors because the color became darker with increasing nano-magnetite concentration in both woods. The absorbance capacity of the synthetic nano-magnetite-treated wood was larger than the commercial nano-magnetite-treated wood. This synthetic nano-magnetite-treated wood had been optimally treated at a 5% concentration, making it suitable for use as electromagnetic wave shielding material because it can absorb almost 100% electromagnetic waves.

Abstract

This study focused on characterizing synthetic magnetite (Fe3O4-NP) and evaluating the impregnated jabon wood’s physical properties. The co-precipitation method used for the synthesis of Fe3O4-NP, namely by mixing the iron solution (n/n Fe2+:Fe3+=1:2) with the strong base of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) (MG-S) and weak base of ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) (MG-W) as precursors. The impregnation stage uses parameters of a -0.5 bar vacuum for half an hour and 2 bar pressure for 2 hours with magnetite concentrations of 1; 2.5; 5% w/v in a demineralized water solvent. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) confirmed the presence of Ferrum content and Fe-O functional group in both Fe3O4-NPs produced. The Fe3O4-NP size was also measured via the X-ray diffraction analysis, namely 34.54 nm for the MG-S and 39.24 nm for the MG-W. Magnetic strength obtained was 7.51 mT for the MG-S and 8.58 mT for the MG-W. The impregnated jabon wood’s physical properties also improved with indications of an increase in wood density, weight percent gain (WPG), bulking effect (BE), anti-swelling efficiency (ASE), and a decrease in water absorption (WA). The results showed the best treatments were MG-S 2.5% and MG-W 5%.

Abstract

Jabon wood (Anthochepalus cadamba) has inferior quality, so it is necessary to modify the wood to improve the quality of its physical properties, namely by impregnating TiO2 nanoparticles (NP-TiO2). This study aims to determine the right synthesis method for the synthesis of NP-TiO2 so as to improve the quality of the physical properties of jabon wood optimally. The results of FTIR testing showed that jabon wood has successfully impregnated NP-TiO2 by hydrothermal and solvothermal methods with ethanol, acetone, and methanol solvents with the identification of the functional group of Ti-O at wavenumber 533 cm-1 and the Ti-O-Ti functional group at wavenumber 679 cm-1 which is the bond formed in the framework of the TiO2 compound. The results of the physical properties test showed that NP-TiO2 which was successfully impregnated into wood was synthesized using hydrothermal and solvothermal methods, namely acetone, methanol, and ethanol, with a WPG value of 1.36%, 2.6%, 2.16%, and 1.61%, respectively. XRD test results show that jabon wood has successfully impregnated NP-TiO2 by hydrothermal and solvothermal methods using acetone, ethanol, and methanol solvents with the identification of anatase TiO2 crystal lattice and crystal sizes of 16.21, 15.94, 14.27, dan 15.75 nm, respectively.

Abstract

Sengon wood (Falcataria moluccana Miq.) is a short-rotation wood which has weak quality characteristics, i.e., low specific gravity, strength, durability, density, and dimensional stability. This study aimed to find out the impact of monoethylene glycol (MEG) and SiO2 nanoparticle impregnation treatment on mechanical properties (MOE, MOR, and hardness) and wood durability. Four kinds of solution were used to impregnate sengon wood: untreated (water), 50% MEG, MEGSiO2 0.5%, and MEGSiO2 1%. The impregnation process was initiated by applying 0.5 atm of vacuum for 60 minutes, followed by 2.5 bar of pressure for 120 minutes. The results showed that MEG and SiO2 nanoparticle impregnation treatment significantly affected the mechanical properties (MOE, MOR, and hardness) and the durability of sengon wood against dry wood and subterranean termite bites. The optimum treatment to increase the properties of sengon wood so that its strength class increases to III-IV and durability class IV was MEG SiO2 1% treatment

Abstract

Bamboo has the potential to be a substitute for wood, although it is no exception that bamboo has many weaknesses. Bamboo is a plant with fast growth, short recycling times, and the potential to be used as structural and non-structural materials. Sembilang bamboo is a bamboo that has a large diameter and is commonly known as giant bamboo. Poor adhesive dispersion was a problem in previous studies, and the presence of discoloration due to important treatments was known. Heating using a microwave is a step in this research to solve the problems that occur. The research was carried out by measuring bamboo samples of a certain size, then the bamboo was scanned, and the wettability was measured initially and at the end of the test. Bamboo samples were heated in the microwave at a certain temperature of 60–75°C for 0.5–1 minute. The results of the 1 minute and 0.5 minute microwave treatment tests can increase wettability so that the spread becomes longer, with a small K value of 0.391. This is presumably because the contact angle is less than 90°. In addition, the treatment also had a small and moderate effect on the color differences that occurred.

Abstract

Sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria L. Nielsen.) and jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba Miq.) are fast-growing wood of low quality. This study aims to overcome the disadvantages of low-quality wood via impregnation using monoethylene glycol (MEG), and nano-silica synthesized from betung bamboo stems (Dendrocalamus asper). Nano-silica was obtained by the ultrasonication method, with the average size and zeta potential at 93 nm and -44.21 mV, respectively. This study used five different solutions: untreated, 50% MEG, MEG-Silica 0.5%, MEG-Silica 0.75%, and MEG-Silica 1%. The impregnation process began when a vacuum of 0.5 bar was applied for 60 minutes and continued with a pressure of 2.5 bar for 120 minutes. The results showed that sengon and jabon experienced an increase in quality as seen from the parameters of weight percent gain, specific gravity, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, hardness, color brightness, and durability against dry wood and subterranean termites. Besides, the strength and durability classes of both kinds of wood also improved to III and IV, respectively, with the solution’s concentration gradually increasing. Based on the results, MEG-Silica 1% is the most influential solution in improving the physical-mechanical properties and durability of sengon and jabon wood.

Abstract

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) wood is one of the most popular timber export products. However, its low durability can reduce the potential and utilization of the wood. Chemical modification is one of the solutions to overcome this drawback. Chemical modification using non-biocide materials such as glycerol and citric acid was carried out to improve the inferior properties of wood. The study aimed to observe the microstructure and evaluate the surface characteristics of glycerol and citric acid-modified scots pine wood. Scots pine wood was modified using glycerol and citric acid with weight percent gain (WPG) values of 20% and 46%. Surface characteristics were measured, including surface roughness, surface free energy (SFE), wettability, and bonding quality. The results show that chemical modification using glycerol and citric acid resulted in the structure of the pine wood being more filled and denser. The modification could also reduce the roughness of the wood surface, resulting in decreased SFE value, increased contact angle, and decreased wettability on the wood surface. It might cause a decrease in the bonding quality because the wood did not have the strength to mechanically lock with the paint. Glycerol and citric acid modified-scots pine wood can be considered for exterior application. Keywords: citric acid, glycerol, microstructure, scots pine, surface characteristics
