以杉木成熟材晚材为研究对象,采用化学成分选择性脱除方法依次脱除木质素和半纤维素。利用纳米压痕技术,在纳米尺度上,探讨半纤维素和木质素对木材细胞壁压入力学性能的影响。结果表明:木质素对细胞壁的弹性模量影响显著,脱除木质素后细胞壁弹性模量损失了6.53%。半纤维素是一种界面高分子,在细胞壁中作为连接纤维素和木质素的界面偶联剂,对细胞壁的纵向弹性模量影响极显著,脱除半纤维素后细胞壁弹性模量损失约为9.16%。木质素和半纤维素对细胞壁的硬度影响均显著。木质素脱除后,细胞壁硬度降低了16.98%。半纤维素脱除处理与脱木质素处理相比,硬度仅下降了0.87%。
In this study, we used targeted modification method to extract lignin and hemicellulose from mature latewood of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook ) successively. We applied nanoindcntation technology to study the effects of hemicellulose and lignin on nano-mechanical properties of wood cell wall at nano-scale. Results showed that lignin influenced the modulus of elasticity (MOE) significantly (at 0.05 level). The loss of elastic modulus was 6.53% after de-lignifing treatment. Hemicelluloses, which act as an interfacial coupling agent between the highly ordered cellulose of the microfibrils and lignin, affected MOE of cell wall significantly ( at 0.01 level). The loss of elastic modulus was about 9.16% after being treated with hemicellulose extraction. Hemicellulose and lignin affected the hardness of cell wall significantly ( at 0.05 level), which decreased with the degradation of hemicellulose or lignin. After de-lignifing treatment, the hardness of cell wall decreased by 16.98%, while it only decreased by 0. 87% after hemicellulose-extracting treatment.
