| Objective of the project | Production of composite material based on low-value wood by polymerisation prior to impregnation with monomers and oligomers, as well as manufacture of goods from it |
| Project Description | The strength properties of the new material are comparable to those of metals, and its thermo-insulating properties are beyond competition with other types of building materials.
The solution of urea, monomers and oligomers in water, due to the small size of the molecules, is able to penetrate into the cavities of the cells of wood matter and impregnate through wood pieces of any thickness. The impregnating solution reacts, under temperature and pressure, with wood matter constituents such as lignin and hemicelluloses, and without disturbing the macrostructure of the wood, changes the chemical structure of these constituents to form substances similar to urea resins used in the production of modern board materials. |
