Abstract

Chemo-thermomechanical pulps (CTMP) from oak wood release more formic and acetic acid than thermomechanical pulps (TMP) made from the same wood. In contrast, the emission of formaldehyde from CTMP is lower than that from TMP. Medium density fibreboards (MDF) made from TMP and CTMP emit less formic and acetic acid compared to the fibres, from which they are made. The formaldehyde release from MUF-bonded MDF made by using TMP and CTMP is higher than from the fibres (TMP and CTMP) used to make the boards.
