Wood-wool cement board : potential and challenges
Wood-wool cement boards (WWCB) produced from Ordinary Portland Cement and spruce wood-wool since the beginning of 1920 are still widely applied. However, the question remains if this type of material is still feasible in the current market where both sustainability and durability perceive popularity. One of the reasons is the high CO2 footprint of cement production which contrasts to the increased environmental concern. This paper describes the potential of the WWCB in the current market, together with the challenges concerning the sustainability. Firstly, the motivation for this study is introduced. Secondly, the production process of the WWCB is reviewed. Thirdly, the available studies on the interaction between wood and cement, are summarized. Finally, the physical influence of an applied binder is discussed.
