The work aimed to evaluated the effect of heat treatment on physical and mechanical properties of Hymenolobium petraeum Ducke wood. For this, were manufactured samples with 25.0 × 9.0 × 1.7 cm which were submitted to different heat treatments, with two temperatures (180 and 200 °C) and two exposure times (2 and 4 hours), besides the control samples (without the heat treatment). After the treatments, each sample were submitted to the assays with withdrawal of subsamples for the physical (density, mass loss, equilibrium moisture content and dimensional stability) and mechanical properties (static bending and compression parallel to grain). The heat treatment provided a weight loss of wood, with the higher temperature treatments displayed the greatest losses. However, it proved effective to decrease the equilibrium moisture content and the dimensional stability. The mechanical properties were not affected to the heat treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It was evaluated the physical and mechanical properties of particleboard produced with different proportions of wood (Eucalyptus grandis) and bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris). The boards were produced using urea-formaldehyde adhesive with the addition of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% of bamboo. For each treatment were determined physical properties (specific gravity, moisture content, water absorption and thickness swelling after 2 and 24 hours water immersion) and mechanical properties (static bending, internal bond and screw withdrawal). The results indicated that the addition of particles of bamboo provided a significant reduction in the quality of panels for most parameters, showing higher water absorption and a lower resistance to static bending and screw withdrawal.

The knowledge about lignocellulosic compounds strength to the attack of microorganisms is essential for preventing deterioration and also for knowing the correct usage of the material. Accordingly it was evaluated the natural resistance of wood panels made of particles of wood (Eucalyptus grandis) and/or bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris) to decay fungi. Particleboards were produced in laboratory, each of them with dimensions 50x50x0.95cm and density pre-set at 0.70g cm-3, in proportions of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 of wood and bamboo, respectively. The particles mass represented 91% of the dry mass of each panel while the remainder was formed by the urea-formaldehyde adhesive (8%) and paraffin (1%). The panels were tested in the laboratory and Gloeophyllum trabeum (brown rot) and Trametes versicolor (white rot) were used to determine the natural resistance to attack by wood decay fungi. It was observed that panels which were made with a mixture of particles of wood and bamboo were less resistant to attack by decay fungi. Panels that were made from bamboo or wood only showed similar biological resistance. Among fungi, T. versicolor was the one that attacked panels more severely. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
