2. Laminated veneer lumber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_veneer_lumber

   The invention of laminated veneer lumber as known today can be attributed to Arthur Troutner. While glue laminated wood veneers were in use since the middle of the 19th century on a small scale for furniture and pianos, Troutner was the first to develop a laminated veneer lumber of a scale large enough to be used in construction.

3. Glued laminated timber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glued_laminated_timber

   Glulam brace with plates used for connections Glulam frame of a roof structure. Glued laminated timber, commonly referred to as glulam, is a type of structural engineered wood product constituted by layers of dimensional lumber bonded together with durable, moisture-resistant structural adhesives so that all of the grain runs parallel to the longitudinal axis.

4. Wood glue - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_glue

   Wood glue is an adhesive used to tightly bond pieces of wood together. Many substances have been used as glues. Many substances have been used as glues. Traditionally animal proteins like casein from milk or collagen from animal hides and bones were boiled down to make early glues.

5. Aerolite (adhesive) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerolite_(adhesive)

   The result was Aerolite, a urea-formaldehyde adhesive which unlike conventional glues of the time, resisted water and micro-organisms. Further research showed that gap-bridging hardeners incorporating formic acid enabled Aerolite to be used as an assembly adhesive. Aerolite was the first adhesive of its type to be invented and manufactured in ...

6. Cross-laminated timber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-laminated_timber

   Thermal insulation – CLT panels provide air tightness and great thermal insulation to buildings as the thermal conductivity (U) of a panel is approximately 0.3458 W/m 2 K. [19] Other common building materials can have U values ranging from 0.4 to 2.5 W/m 2 K. [20] The various layers of wood also serve as a thermal mass, which can help reduce ...

7. Medium-density fibreboard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-density_fibreboard

   MDF is typically made up of 82% wood fibre, 9% urea-formaldehyde resin glue, 8% water, and 1% paraffin wax. [4] The density is typically between 500 and 1,000 kg/m 3 (31 and 62 lb/cu ft). [5] The range of density and classification as light-, standard-, or high-density board is a misnomer and confusing.
