Tensile Shear Strength of Wood Adhesive from Recycled Polystyrene

Abstract:

This paper discloses a method to recycle polystyrene (PS) waste by adding ethanol based hydrocarbons solvent to produce a novel adhesive for wood joining application. In the experiments, tensile shear strength of wood lap joint having various overlap lengths was conducted. It was found that this new adhesive has significant shear strength as compared to commercial wood adhesive. This relatively low cost adhesive has potential to be used for wood joining application especially in marine structures.
