Both tannins showed similar structures according to the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight analysis. A high reactivity has been checked by gel time measurements and the viscosity increase. Already the BIOLANDES and the DRT tannin alone registered an internal bond (IB) of 0.4MPa without any hardener. The BIOLANDES tannin with paraformaldehyde could fulfil the European standard EN 312. In general, DRT tannin obtained the best mechanical results. However, the pH and the moisture content play a fundamental role for the final IB. Thus, DRT tannin with glyoxal as hardener at high pH and moisture content gave an IB of 0.51MPa. The mechanical resistance differences between BIOLANDES and DRT tannin were confirmed by the C-13 NMR spectra. DRT tannin presents a lower polymerization de than BIOLANDES, and more reactive sites are available.  ISSN : 0169-4243  Journal Name : JOURNAL OF ADHESION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY  Volume : 27  Issue Number : 22  Publishing Year : 1434 AH 2013 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Wednesday, July 19, 2017  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email p Navarrete Navarrete, p Researcher     A Pizzi Pizzi, A Researcher     H Pasch Pasch, H Researcher     K rode rode, K Researcher     l Delmotte Delmotte, l Researcher     Files File Name Type Description  42109.pdf pdf   Back To Researches Page
