. It was possible to bond the wood panels with the locust bean gum dispersion at room temperature even though the water content is 94 wt%. The wood substrates bonded with locust bean gum dispersion fulfill the D1 criterion (10 MPa) with much fiber tear and reveal an even higher tensile shear strength than Cascol. All wood substrates bonded with locust bean gum dispersion held together after 3 h in water, conditioning method B, whereas three wood substrates bonded with Cascol delaminated in the water. The wood substrates bonded with locust bean gum dispersion also fulfill the D2 criterion with similar results as Cascol, showing a good water resistance. However, the standard deviation is very large for both Cascol and locust bean gum dispersion. The locust bean gum dispersion also shows a good heat resistance since it also fulfills the WATT 91 criterion, whereas Cascol does not.
