A multi-cavity forming mould system for forming a plurality of discrete three-dimensional cellulose products from an air-formed cellulose blank structure. The forming mould system includes a first mould part and a second mould part arranged for cooperating with each other during forming of the cellulose products. The first mould part includes a plurality of first forming elements and the second mould part comprises a plurality of corresponding second forming elements movably arranged in relation to a base structure of the second mould part. The forming mould system is configured for establishing a plurality of forming cavities for the cellulose blank structure between each first forming element and corresponding second forming element during formation of the cellulose products. Each second forming element is arranged for interacting with a pressure member arranged in the base structure, where the pressure member is configured for establishing a forming pressure in each forming cavity onto the cellulose blank structure during formation of the cellulose products.

A manufacturing process for manufacturing wood products with acoustic dampening properties. A noise-dampening polymer is introduced in-line in the manufacturing process to achieve higher acoustic performance. The polymer can be a viscoelastic polymer which is added during blending of the lignocellulosic strands prior to mat formation, or sprayed or otherwise coated on the lignocellulosic strands during mat formation, prior to formation of any boards or panels.

A fire-resistant wooden pressure plate is formed by conducting a cold pressing of 2˜10 MPa to the uniformly mixed not less than 50 wt % of a wood-containing powder material and an additive. The additive may include metallic oxide, non-metallic oxide, hydrochloride, sulfate, phosphate, weak acid, and strong acid. With class-A fire resistance, in-water rotting resistance, class-0 mold resistance, little or no detectable formaldehyde, some products described herein can replace traditional plates incapable of resisting fire in the following fields: 1. wooden veneer, wooden door, furniture, kitchenware, etc.; 2. wooden wall, base course, ground foundation, suspended ceiling, etc.; 3. wooden flooring; 4. wooden fire-resistant door, fire-resistant wall, etc.; 5. wooden house, wooden bench, wooden bulletin plate, wooden billboard, walkway paving, etc.; 6. wood handicrafts, toys, etc.

The invention related to an apparatus for recycling of lignocellulosic fibres from a fibreboard comprising compressed lignocellulosic fibres bonded together by a binding agent. The apparatus comprises a transport device arranged within a closed housing, wherein the housing is arranged for steaming pieces of the fibreboard at super-atmospheric pressure to decompress and release the lignocellulosic fibres by hydrating them, as well as hydrolysing the binding agent, and the transport device is arranged for transporting the fibreboard pieces, upon being steamed, from an inlet of the housing, at which the fibreboard pieces are fed to the housing, to an outlet of the housing, at which steamed portions comprising released lignocellulosic fibres exit the housing. Further, the apparatus comprises a steam generator in communication with the housing, whereby the fibreboard pieces may be steamed at super-atmospheric pressure in the housing to provide the steamed portions comprising released lignocellulosic fibres, an inlet pressure lock configured to receive the fibreboard pieces at atmospheric pressure and to deliver them to the housing, via the inlet, at super-atmospheric pressure, and an outlet pressure lock configured to receive steamed portions comprising released lignocellulosic fibres via the outlet and ejecting recycled lignocellulosic fibres during a sudden expansion of super-atmospheric pressure.

A manufactured wood panel or board with an integrated conveying laminate that conveys a fire resistant (FR) additive to specific locations within the panel or board during the manufacturing process, and the process and system for producing a panel or board with an FR conveying laminate. The laminate may be a natural or synthetic material with a closed (i.e., solid) or open (i.e., mesh-like) surface. In addition to providing resistance to fire spread and fire combustion, the laminate also may be selected from a group of materials that produce desired structural properties (i.e., minimize cracking, enhance structural integrity) both before and during a particular event, such as a fire event.

The invention relates to systems and techniques for manufacturing articles containing cellulosic material, a tackifier, and a binder, and related processes of making and using the cellulosic articles. In particularly exemplary embodiments, the manufactured articles are door skins, sometimes known as door facings, and doors made from the door skins. The article contains a lipophilic cellulosic material, a tackifier, and a binder.

A method of preparing fungal mycelium fiberboards is provided. First, 1-2 year-old fungal mycelium with a water content of 50-70% is cut into 2-3 cm lengths to obtain cut fungal mycelium. The cut fungal mycelium is then high-pressure steamed to soften it, resulting in the steamed fungal mycelium. The steamed fungal mycelium is mechanically defiberized into fibers and adhesive is added to obtain adhesive-applied fungal mycelium fibers. The adhesive-applied fungal mycelium fibers are then dried at 120-160° C., resulting in dried fungal mycelium fibers. The dried fungal mycelium fibers are then spread, leveled, and pre-pressed to obtain fungal mycelium fiberboard blanks, which are hot-pressed to form the final fungal mycelium fiberboard. This method uses low-cost, fast-growing fungal mycelium as a raw material, which replaces wood chips. The preparation process is simple and easy to promote. The resulting fungal mycelium fiberboard exhibits excellent performance in various indicators and is also environmentally friendly.

An adhesive is added to woody fibers obtained by steaming and defibrating a woody material. Then, the woody fibers are formed and are subjected to thermocompression molding. The woody material includes a compressed material obtained by compressing and integrating together a plurality of dried ground products of a Palmae plant.
