In der vorliegenden Studie werden typische, kommerziell erhältliche und mit unterschiedlichen Lacksystemen beschichtete MDF für den Küchenbereich hinsichtlich ihres Emissionsverhaltens und deren Oberflächeneigenschaften verglichen: wasserlack-, lösungsmittellack- und pulverlackbasierte Oberflächen. Es zeigt sich, dass eine Pulverlackierung insgesamt zu höherwertigen Produkten führt, sowohl in Bezug auf Kratzbeständigkeit, Haftung und Beständigkeit gegen feuchte Hitze als auch insbesondere in Bezug auf VOC-Emissionen. Die Wasserlackoberflächen schnitten hinsichtlich ihres Emissionsverhaltens deutlich besser ab als die lösemittelbasierten Beschichtungssysteme und zeigten in Bezug auf die Oberflächeneigenschaften mit einer Ausnahme vergleichbare Kennwerte.
Impact of phenolic resin preparation on its properties and its penetration behavior in Kraft paper
(2018)
The core of decorative laminates is generally made of stacked Kraft paper sheets impregnated with a phenolic resin. As the impregnation process in industry is relatively fast, new methods need to be developed to characterize it for different paper-resin systems. Several phenolic resins were synthesized with the same Phenol:Formaldehyde ratio of 1:1.8 and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FTIR) as well as Size-Exclusion Chromatography (SEC). In addition, their viscosities and surface tensions when diluted in methanol to 45% of solid content were measured. The capacity of each resin to penetrate a Kraft paper sheet was characterized using a new method, which measures the conductivities induced by the liquid resin crossing the paper substrate. With this method, crossing times could be measured with a good accuracy. Surprisingly, the results showed that the penetration time of the resin samples is not correlated to the viscosity values, but rather to the surface tension characteristics and the chemical characteristics of paper. Furthermore, some resins had a higher swelling effect on the fibers that delayed the crossing of the liquid through the paper.
