ADHESIVES FROM RENEWABLE RESOURCES

Adhesives from renewable resources Richard W. Hemingway, editor, Anthony H. Conner, editor, Susan J. Branham, associate editor. [Pg.2]

Byproducts of the forest products industry are potentially primary sources of natural resource-based adhesives. Because this industry is both a producer of huge tonnages of residues and a major consumer of adhesives, this book focuses on adhesives from renewable resources derived from trees. Composites made from wood will remain the primary materials used for the construction of homes and their furnishings for the foreseeable future. [Pg.5]

The date of the symposium on which this book is based marked the 15th anniversary of the severe petroleum shortage of 1973—1974. Much of the research presented in this volume was begun in the early 1970s in response to shortages of petroleum-based adhesives for the forest products industry when the nation was in the midst of a record-setting demand for housing materials. Left with this indelible memory, the forest products industry has supported the development of adhesives from renewable resources. [Pg.5]
