Abstract

Construction wastes (CWs) were utilized in this work as the feedstock for manufacturing wasted-based particle boards (WPBs). Results revealed that phytic acid (PA), as a natural and sustainable fire retardant, imparts the WPBs excellent flame retardancy and smoke suppression. The hydrogen bonds network formed among PA, waste particles, and adhesive improves the stress transferring of WPBs when subjected to load, thus elevating the modulus of elasticity and inner bonding strength of PA-treated WPBs. We believe that the as-proposed recycling methods promote the value-added utilization of CWs, and it is also beneficial for realizing the recycling of timber architectures.
