Adhesive wettabillty of four Malaysian wood species / Kamarulzaman Nordin, Mansur Ahmad and Suhaini Ali

Adhesive wettability of four Malaysian wood species namely Tualang (Koompassia excelsa), Kapur (Dryobalanops aromatica), Merbau (lnstia palembanica) and Meranti (Shorea spp.) were determined using contact angle measurement. Two resin systems; polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and phenol resorcinol formaldehy...

Generally, it was learned from this study that PRF exhibits better wettability than PVAc and should form more intimate contact with the wood surface regardless of the four species evaluated.
