Abstract

An efficient way to alleviate the pollution imposed by petroleum-based supplies like synthetic fibres and plastics is to prepare biocomposites from recyclable forestry waste with a continuous supply. Despite this, it remains a significant challenge in the field of wood-based panel manufacturing to produce high-performance yet environmentally friendly wood-based materials without the addition of chemical adhesives. Lignin can be used as a “natural adhesive” due to its superior bonding properties, but the dispersion of hemicellulose affects cross-linking at the interfacial interface negatively. This study used lignin/cellulose as a matrix and pretreated it with hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate solution and in situ bonding of wood fibres to create a high-performance biocomposite material for potential mass production. The findings revealed the tensile (106.63 MPa) and bending strengths (148.78 MPa) of the optimised samples were 125.37% and 91.40% higher than the performance before optimisation. Moreover, the biocomposite demonstrated remarkable hydrophobicity, as evidenced by a water contact angle of 99.96°, and exhibited high thermal stability, without any disintegration observed even when subjected to combustion at 1300 °C. These exceptional properties and advantages render it a highly desirable material for eco-friendly homes and construction applications.
