Formwork plywood is a building formwork used for concrete pouring. It is made of multiple layers of wood (such as birch or poplar) bonded together with phenolic resin glue and covered with a waterproof coating. It has high strength and moisture resistance and is widely used in construction. It is formed by a hot pressing process, with strong bonding between layers, and can be reused many times. For example, in bridge construction, plywood supports concrete forming and ensures a flat surface; in high-rise buildings, it is lightweight and easy to carry. Production is subject to strength testing and waterproof performance evaluation.
The advantages of plywood are durability and cost-effectiveness. Supporters believe that it provides a reliable formwork for construction. For example , phenolic resin glue improves moisture resistance and is suitable for humid environments; surface coating reduces concrete adhesion and facilitates demoulding. However, critics point out that it may delaminate after repeated use, reducing strength; wood moisture absorption may cause expansion and deformation; in addition, phenolic resin may release formaldehyde, affecting the health of construction workers.
In the future, plywood may pay more attention to environmental protection and durability. The development of formaldehyde-free adhesives may reduce health risks; its potential in the construction field includes supporting recyclable formwork and complex structure molding (improved precision). But the industry needs to solve the challenges of delamination (the goal is to improve bonding stability) and formaldehyde control (the goal is to achieve formaldehyde-free).
