| description | This project was carried out to study about the properties of particleboard by
using oil palm trunk. Oil palm trunk is the new species that has a potential to
be commercialized as the raw material in wood based industry as it is the
species that is most planted in the country. In line with the need to further
exploit the potential use of oil palm, this study was undertaken to investigate
the feasibility of the species in particleboard manufacturing. For this study,
three particles sizes of 1 mm, 2 mm and unscreening particles sizes from oil
palm trunk were blended with phenol formaldhyde (PF). In general this
particleboard was significant with various sizes of particles oil palm trunk.
The particleboard was determined by mechanical properties and physical
properties. These result showed that unscreening size has better
performance in bending and internal bonding strength meanwhile 1 mm size
has better in thickness swelling and small size should not be used for
mechanical properties of particleboard |
