Investigation of suberic acids for application in birch plywood

Project summary

The scientific objective of the research application is to carry out an interdisciplinary non-economic industrial research that will combine the fields of chemical technology and material science and promote knowledge transfer by developing a new eco-innovative technology for the processing of birch plywood into a suitable, eco-friendly suberic acid binder that could both replace toxic phenol-formaldehyde resins and modify them to reduce formaldehyde emissions.
