Popis: Improving the production process of FSF waterproof plywood has been relevant since the beginning of its pro-duction. Only the criteria for improving the quality of plywood products are changing. At the present stage, the costs of improving the quality of plywood cannot be compensated by an increase in prices. Reduction in production costs is required. A rational way to improve operational properties is to reduce pressing temperature and introduce modifying additives that increase adhesive and cohesive strength of phenol-formaldehyde binder. The problem is that when press-ing temperature is reduced to 150 °C or lower, phenol-formaldehyde binder does not reach the resite stage. It negatively affects the strength and water resistance of FSF plywood. It was decided to use modifying additives in the adhesive composition to bind free methylol groups of the oligomer and increase the number of active sites in the curable phenolic binder network. The strength properties of FSF plywood with the use of nine modifying additives have been investigated. The consumption of modifiers varied in the range of 0.25-1.5% in increments of 0.25%. Pressing was carried out at a temperature of 120 °С. An improvement in the tensile strength of plywood when shearing on the adhesive layer was found to be 5-15% (in comparison with control samples without the addition of a modifier) when aqueous solutions of hexavalent aluminum chloride, anhydrous magnesium chloride, eight-zinc zinc sulfate, sulfosalicylic acid, dimethylglyoxime with a different proportion of additives were used as modifying additives to phenol-formaldehyde binder. Tensile strength under static bending of plywood is also increased when using modifiers with different proportion of additives
