Development Process of Plywood Bonding Agent made from Bamboo Scraps.

Abstract

The research paper presents the results of the development of plywood from the production process of bamboo such as baskets, round bamboo basket, etc., which is a residential occupation in Lum Sum sub-district, Saiyok district, Kanchanaburi Province. However, the production process of plywood was originally required to be heated. The researchers were constantly dependent on the plywood production plant. Therefore, the villagers were looking for substitute materials for plywood bonding agent from the industrial plant. The researchers also tested the proper temperature with the replacement plywood bonding agent and transferred it to the community using a new blend made of latex, foam, wood-based glue, resin, cement. The traditional process of the villagers was carried out by experimenting with wooden boards from new plywood bonding agent and testing them for 5 to 23 minutes during the temperature range 100 - 180 degrees Celsius. The foam is known to provide the best fit for the heating time, temperature range, and thinner. The result shows that when mixed foam 380 g with thinner 300 g, will get the best cementitious solution heat at 90 degrees Celsius, press for 20 minutes, can bear the best weight at 56 kg.
