VALORIZATION OFAGROINDUSTRIAL RAW MATERIALS
FOR THE PRODUCTION OFADHESIVES FOR THE WOOD
INDUSTRY
Advanced NanocompositesResearch Group
PROPOSAL
1. Replacement of urea-formaldehyderesins(UF).
• Used for the productionof particleboards and
plywoods• Non renewable
material.• Formaldehyde wasdeclared a carcinogenby the World Health
Organization (WHO).
2. Industrialization ofagricultural products.
• Development of proteinbased bioadhesives(soybean and blood
meal)• Improvement of themechanical propertiesby the incorporation of
clay nanoparticles.• Increasement of rawmaterials added value.
3. Promotion ofsustainable industries
• Production ofenvironmentally
friendly products.• Use of waste, or by-
products, of theagricultural industry.
