Application of Single and Double Component Wood Bleaching Chemicals on Surface Properties of Naga (Brachystegia cynometroides) Wood

Hüseyin Peker, Göksel Ulay, Ümit Ayata

Abstract


In this study, some surface changes (color parameters, whiteness index (WI*), and glossiness) occurring after the application of single [oxalic acid (C2H2O4)] and double component [sodium hydroxide (NaOH) + hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)] wood bleaching chemicals on naga (Brachystegia cynometroides) wood were investigated. The bleached surfaces were compared with the unbleached surfaces. According to the obtained results, the ∆E* values were determined as 2.99 for C2H2O4 chemical and 16.95 for NaOH + H2O2 chemical. Significant results were found for all tests in the analysis of variance. Increases in b* and C* values were observed with C2H2O4, while decreases were observed with NaOH + H2O2 chemical. With both wood bleaching chemicals, increases were found in WI* values in parallel directions to the fibers, as well as in ho and L* values, while decreases were obtained in glossiness values at 60 and 85 degrees in both parallel and perpendicular directions to the fibers, and in a* values.
