| Abstract Scope |
Research and development for processing technology of naturally-derived material have been demanded for preventing mass disposal of petroleum-derived plastics. Authors have proposed injection molding of new wood composite with natural binder, which is composed of sucrose and citric acid. The wood composite is plasticized to be deformable when heated, and then molding is possible. In this study, effect of the natural binder content and mixture ratio of the sucrose and the citric acid on fluidity of the wood composite on injection molding was investigated. At first, optimum temperature for plasticizing the wood composite was investigated by thermal analysis and extrusion test. Based on these results, injection molding was carried out. Product was obtained successfully when the fluidity of the wood composite was high. The fluidity was improved with an increase of the binder content, and optimum mixture ratio of the sucrose and the citric acid was 75:25. |
