NaClO添加量对TEMPO氧化纳米微纤丝结构与性能的影响

以毛竹粉为原料,采用TEMPO催化氧化联合超声处理制备纳米微纤丝,通过改变Na Cl O与纤维素的质量比,研究了Na Cl O添加量对纳米纤维素的长径比、纤维形态以及羧基含量等特性的影响。结果表明:随着Na Cl O添加量的增加,纳米纤维素羧基含量逐渐提高,长径比增大;当Na Cl O添加量为15 mmol/g时,纳米纤维素羧基含量可高达1.646 mmol/g,横截面直径可达6～10 nm,长径比为273～455;随着纳米纤维素羧基含量的增加,纳米纤维素悬浮液的透光率和剪切黏度不断增大。虽然TEMPO催化氧化程度不断加深,但纳米纤维素的晶型并未遭到破坏,仍然呈现出典型的纤维素I晶体结构,而随着羧基含量的增加,纳米纤维素的结晶度和热稳定性有一定程度的下降。     

Preparation of synthetic wood composites using ionic liquids

Synthetic wood composite films containing cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin, the three major components of natural wood, were prepared in a room temperature ionic liquid solvent, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, [EMIM][Ac]. Various synthetic wood composites were obtained by dissolution of individual wood components together with additives, including polyethylene glycol (PEG), chitosan, and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in [EMIM][Ac]. The addition of water affords a gel that was dried in either a low humidity environment or under vacuum. Synthetic wood films showed smoother surface textures, higher water resistance, and higher tensile strengths than cellulose films formed by the same methods. Tailor-made synthetic wood composites were also prepared having a variety of desirable properties, including antimicrobial activities, controlled hydro-phobicity/philicity, high relative dielectric constant, and a high degree of cohesiveness.     

Wood nanocelluloses: fundamentals and applications as new bio-based nanomaterials

Nanocelluloses, which include nanofibrillated celluloses (NFCs) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) with high and low aspect ratios, respectively, are promising new bio-based nanomaterials, prepared from wood and other plant celluloses by mechanical shearing in water with or without pretreatments. Low degrees of enzymatic hydrolysis, carboxymethylation, acetylation, oxidation, and other position-selective modifications on cellulose microfibril surfaces have been applied as pretreatments to wood celluloses to reduce energy consumption in the mechanical shearing process and to improve the nanofibrillation level of the obtained NFCs. NFCs are convertible to nanocellulose sheets, films, hydrogels, foams, and aerogels with fibril network structures or close-packing structures using coating on base films or filtration process like papermaking, which is advantageous for efficient removal of water predominantly present in the NFC/water dispersions. NFC-containing self-standing films, coated films, and NFC/matrix nanocomposites in most cases show explicitly high mechanical strength and ductility despite being lightweight and having optical transparency, thermal stability, and gas-barrier properties. Because NFCs have aspect ratios and molecular weights higher than those of CNCs, the most promising and challenging end products are NFC-containing nanocomposite materials having higher functionalities than those of the conventional fiber-reinforced composite materials.     

Adsorptive properties of dyes to cellulosic sheet and discoloration of dye solution by UV-ray irradiation

The adsorptive properties and selectivity of dyes and water molecules to cellulosic sheet, dependence of adsorptive properties of dyes on the concentration of dye solution, and discoloration of the dye solution due to the UV-ray irradiation were determined for 18 kinds of commercial dyes. The results are as follows： 1） the adsorptive properties of dyes to cellulose sheet differed greatly, but did not depend on the dye types such as acidic, basic and so on; 2） adsorptive properties of dyes to cellulosic sheet de- pended on the concentration of dye solution and were classified into 4 types： concentration-independent, increasing or decreasing with dye concentration, and having a maximum. This classification was irrelevant to the dye types; 3） the irradiation of UV-ray did not cause significant discoloration of dye solution itself, which suggested that wood components as well as dye molecules influence the discoloration of wood.     

The effects of thinning treatments on density, MOE, MOR and maximum crushing strength of Pinus brutia Ten. wood

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of plantation thinning on various wood properties of Pinus brutia Ten. Tree samples were obtained from heavily and moderately thinned and unthinned 33–35 year-old plantations. Wood properties were examined in various wood zones including 16 annual rings after the first treatment. The results of this study showed that there was a significant relationship between thinning intensity and radial increment (1.30 m) for an individual tree. Thinning treatments increased annual ring width especially a few years after thinning. Heavy thinning treatments were especially effective in impacting mean ring width values at breast height. However, the percentage of late wood did not differ much between the samples. Based on the results of correlation analysis between ring width and late wood percentage there was no significant correlation identified. Mean wood density was not affected by the treatments. Also, no significant correlation was found between thinning and examined strength properties (MOR, MOE and compression strength parallel to grain). However, a relationship was found between wood density and all strength properties except for MOE. The current results suggest that thinning can produce improvements in ring width without any negative impacts on investigated wood properties. It is recommended that subsequent studies should be designed to understand genetic effects and maximize treatment effects.     

Effects of densification on untreated and nano-aluminum-oxide impregnated poplar wood

Effects of densification of poplar wood (Populus nigra) impregnated with nano-aluminum oxide (NA) and pre-treated with water vapor for 4 and 6 h were investigated in the present study. Physical and mechanical properties of treated poplar wood were measured according to the ASTM D-143 standard specifications, and then compared with the untreated specimens. Results showed significant improvement in all properties as a result of densification. A 4-h vapor pre-treatment improved effects on both physical and mechanical properties. When the duration of vapor-treatment increased to 6 h, wood polymers degraded to the extent that the improvements due to the vapor pre-treatment decreased substantially, though the final results were still significant improvements compared with the control specimens. High thermal conductivity coefficient of NA slightly but not significantly improved properties. Due to the high spring-back after 15 days, densified poplar is not recommended for applications in which densified wood will be exposed for long periods to high humidity or to direct water.     

Differences in delta13C and diameter growth among remnant Scots pine populations in Scotland

Published data suggest that differences in wood cellulose carbon isotope composition (delta13C) and xylem ring width among natural populations of Scots pine in Scotland (Pinus sylvestris L.) are attributable to the persistence of palaeotypes of various post-glacial migratory origins. We assessed differences in wood cellulose delta13C and ring width among Scottish Scots pine populations grown in a clone bank and in natural stands at various locations in northern and central Scotland. Ring width and wood cellulose delta13C varied significantly among natural stands. Potential water deficit was positively correlated with wood cellulose delta13C and xylem ring width in the natural stands. Neither wood cellulose delta13C nor xylem ring width of clone bank trees correlated with any climate variables at the sites from which the trees originated, indicating little adaptation to climate for these traits. Xylem ring width showed a site x population interaction for the growth sites (i.e., natural stands versus clone bank), but wood cellulose delta13C did not. These results suggest that climate variation in Scotland has not resulted in significant genetic variation in wood cellulose delta13C or xylem ring width in post-glacial populations.     

杨树新无性系木材性质的变异研究

The wood basic density, cellulose content and fiber form were investigated for all sample trees at breast height (1.3m) in seven poplar clones, and at 0 (butt), 5.6, 9.6, 13.6, 17.6, 19.6 and 21.6 m for clone Nanlin-95 and Nanlin-895, respectively,for providing information on variation patterns of wood density, fiber characteristics and holocellulose content within trees and among clones. The results showed that significant variations about wood density, cellulose content, fiber diameter and the ratio of fiber length to diameter existed among poplar clones examined. Variance analysis indicated that there were significant differences in wood basic density, fiber length, fiber diameter and cellulose content among the growth rings, which had an increasing tendency along the direction from pith to bark. The significant differences also existed in wood basic density, fiber length and fiber diameter at different tree height. The mean wood basic density had a general increase trend with increasing height of trees and the lowest was found at the base, while fiber length and fiber diameter had a general decline pattern with increasing height of trees and the biggest value was observed at the height of 5.6 m. Regression analysis indicated that the relationship between examined wood properties and growth ring number (cambial age), and the relationship between examined wood properties and tree height can be described by polynomial functions.     

Effects of abrasive mineral, grit size and feed speed on the quality of sanded surfaces of sugar maple wood

Sanding is a common practice required in order to prepare wood surfaces for coating. Little literature is available regarding the effect of sanding parameters on the quality of surfaces. Sugar maple wood surfaces were evaluated in samples that had been sanded using two types of abrasive minerals, three grit sizes and four feed speeds. Roughness, wetting properties and cell damage were used to assess surface quality. Both abrasives decreased roughness and cell damage from 100- to 120-grit sanding stage. Addition of a 150-grit stage did not further reduce the roughness, whereas the cell damage continued to decrease. Increasing feed speed led to rougher surfaces due to higher fibrillation. Surfaces produced by silicon carbide were smoother and less damaged than those obtained with aluminum oxide. However, the surfaces sanded with aluminum oxide were more wettable and showed no significant difference in wetting time as a function of grit size. For these surfaces, the wetting time was reduced as feed speed increased.An erratum to this article is available at .An erratum to this article can be found at     

Enthalpy relaxation behavior of dry wood detected by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry

Enthalpy relaxation of dry wood has been investigated by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry. The reversing and non-reversing heat flow changes revealed that enthalpy relaxation occurred in dry wood, which did not exhibit any clear glass transitions. This enthalpy relaxation behavior seemed to differ significantly from those of previously reported isolated lignins, which implies that the microstructure of dry wood possesses a rigid amorphous state derived from interactions among wood components. The observed enthalpy relaxation is considered to be related to other components besides lignin, and the time-dependent physical properties due to unstable states or physical aging of wood originate not only from lignin but also from other components, such as cellulose and hemicellulose and the interactions between them.

Relationship between production of hydroxyl radicals and degradation of wood, crystalline cellulose, and a lignin-related compound or accumulation of oxalic acid in cultures of brown-rot fungi

The degradation of wood, filter paper cellulose, and a lignin-substructure model, was measured in cultures of seven fungi usually regarded as brown-rot fungi. Hydroxyl radical production and the accumulation of oxalic acid in the cultures were also measured. Four of the fungi, Gloeophyllum trabeum, Tyromyces palustris, Laetiporus sulphureus, and Postia placenta, were typical brown-rot fungi, in that they preferentially degraded and eliminated the polysaccharides in wood and produced large amounts of hydroxyl radical. The rates of hydroxyl radical generation in cultures of the four fungi were directly proportional to the degradation rates of wood, cellulose, and the lignin-related compound, and inversely proportional to the amount of oxalic acid in the cultures. Two of the fungi, Daedalea dickinsii and Lentinus lepideus, did not degrade any of the substrates significantly and produced very little hydroxyl radical. Coniophora puteana had the highest rate of cellulose degradation, but did not degrade wood or the lignin model significantly and produced only negligible amounts of hydroxyl radical. These results indicate that brown-rot fungi produce large amounts of hydroxyl radical for the degradation of wood and crystalline cellulose.     

Fundamental studies on wood/cellulose-plastic composites: effects of composition and cellulose dimension on the properties of cellulose/PP composite

Although wood/cellulose-plastic composites (WPC) of low wood/cellulose content have been more accepted worldwide and are promoted as low-maintenance, high-durability building products, composites containing high wood/cellulose content are not yet developed on an industrial scale. In this study, flow properties, mechanical properties, and water absorption properties of the compounds of cellulose microfiber/polypropylene (PP) and maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAPP) were investigated to understand effects of the high cellulose content and the dimensions of the cellulose microfiber. The molding processes studied included compression, injection, and extrusion. It was found that fluidity is not only dependent on resin content but also on the dimension of the filler; fluidity of the compound declined with increased fiber length with the same resin content. Dispersion of the composite was monitored by charge-coupled device (CCD) microscope. Increasing the plastic content in the cellulose-plastic formulation improved the strength of mold in addition to the bond development between resin and filler, and the tangle of fibers. The processing mode affected the physicomechanical properties of the cellulosic plastic. Compression-molded samples exhibited the lowest modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) and the highest water absorption, while samples that were injection-molded exhibited the highest MOR (70 MPa) and MOE (7 GPa) and low water absorption (2%).     

Consumption of O<Subscript>2</Subscript>, evolution of CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> and reduction of Cr(VI) during fixation of chromium based wood preservatives in wood

Norway spruce dust was impregnated with aqueous solutions of chromated copper wood preservatives. Immediately after treatment, observation of CO₂ evolution and O₂ consumption were performed. Significant quantities of CO₂ were released during reaction of chromium (K₂Cr₂O₇) containing solutions with wood or brown rotted wood. Nevertheless, during reaction of cellulose with these preservatives we did not observe evolution of CO₂. The presence of copper did not influence on concentration of CO₂. Opposite to CO₂ evolution, treatment of wood and brown rotted wood resulted in O₂ consumption. The oxygen concentration decrease in the measuring chamber was approximately 5 times greater than increase of concentration of carbon dioxide. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) observations of chromium fixation showed that chromium is reduced from Cr(VI) to Cr(III) with Cr(V) as an intermediate on wood, brown rotted wood and cellulose. However, the reduction on wood and brown rotted wood was faster than the reduction on cellulose, as determined from changes of Cr signals in EPR spectra. So, evolution of CO₂ and consumption of O₂ as well as EPR signals of Cr species thus indicate that brown rotted wood, consisting of lignin and hemicelluloses in contact with Cr(VI) reacts more intensively than cellulose, and possibly, oxidation mechanisms of lignin and cellulose with Cr(VI) are different.

Determination of the cellulose and lignin content on wood fibre surfaces of eucalypts as a function of genotype and site

We compared the chemical composition of wood fibres and fibre surfaces of several eucalypt species and hybrids originating from various growth sites in South Africa. The objective was to test for differences in chemical surface composition due to genetics or site with the ultimate aim to facilitate a tailor-made supply of wood for pulping that results in an optimal blend of fibres that can be pulped together with similar yields. This, however, requires a sound knowledge of the fibre properties. The surface functionality on the single fibre level is a key property, because it determines how good inter-fibre bonding will be when paper is formed, which depends amongst other fibre properties on the amount of free hydroxyl groups that are available and therefore on the cellulose content on the fibre surface. The cellulose and lignin content on the fibre surface were determined with chemical force microscopy, a variation of atomic force microscopy. Since the general bulk composition of the fibre and the surface composition might differ, both parameters were determined. We found significant differences in the cellulose and lignin content on fibre surfaces, with regard to genotype and site, respectively. In some, but not all, cases, the surface composition of wood fibres followed the bulk composition, and differences were generally more pronounced. Differences due to genotype were significant, especially with regard to the surface lignin content—but variation due to site was also distinctly recognisable. This variation in surface functionality could be the reason why some pulpwood blends result in a lower pulp yield and different quality.     

Scots pine responses to elevated temperature and carbon dioxide concentration: growth and wood properties

Growth and wood properties of 20-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) trees were studied for 6 years in 16 closed chambers providing a factorial combination of two temperature regimes (ambient and elevated) and two carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO2]) (ambient and twice ambient). The elevation of temperature corresponded to the predicted effect at the site of a doubling in atmospheric [CO2]. Annual height and radial growth and wood properties were analyzed during 1997-2002. Physical wood properties analyzed included early- and latewood widths and their proportions, intra-ring wood densities, early- and latewood density and mean fiber length. Chemical wood properties analyzed included concentrations of acetone-soluble extractives, lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. There were no significant treatment effects on height growth during the 6-year study. Elevated [CO2] increased ring width by 66 and 47% at ambient and elevated temperatures, respectively. At ambient [CO2], elevated temperature increased ring width by 19%. Increased ring width in response to elevated [CO2] resulted from increases in both early- and latewood width; however, there was no effect of the treatments on early- and latewood proportions. Mean wood density, earlywood density and fiber length increased in response to elevated temperature. The chemical composition of wood was affected by elevated [CO2], which reduced the cellulose concentration, and by elevated temperature, which reduced the concentration of acetone-soluble extractives. Thus, over the 6-year period, radial growth was significantly increased by elevated [CO2], and some wood properties were significantly affected by elevated temperature or elevated [CO2], or both, indicating that climate change may affect the material properties of wood.
