Abstract

The instant disclosure relates to an engineered wood precursor mixture. The engineered wood precursor mixture includes wood components and a binder reaction mixture. The binder reaction mixture is present in a range of from 3 parts to 25 parts per 100 parts of the dry weight of the plurality of wood components. The binder reaction mixture includes an aqueous portion including a glycerol component. The glycerol component includes glycerol or an oligomer of glycerol in a range of from 5 wt % to 65 wt % or 5 wt % to 50 60 wt %, based on the dry weight of the binder reaction mixture. The binder reaction mixture further includes an at least partially non-dissolved polypeptide-containing component comprising an enhanced protein pea flour. The enhanced protein pea flour comprises 40 wt % to 85 wt % protein.
