WOOD PANEL Optimization of Admixture and Three-Layer Particleboard Made from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch and Rubberwood Clones, S.O.Al-E.S. Azry et al , Agricultural Biomass Based Potential Materials , 2015. Two types of particleboards (admixture and three-layer) with different ratios of the fibrous raw materials, were produced. It was found that admixture particleboards showed superior properties compared to three-layer particleboards, and that the optimum ratios of EFB and both rubberwood clones are found to be 1:1 (50 % EFB: 50 % rubberwood). Use of almond shell powder in modification of the physical and mechanical properties of medium density fiberboard, M. Nazerian et al , BioResources Journal , 10 (1). This study evaluated the effects of almond shell powder content as an extender, as well as the effects of varying paraffin contents, temperature, and press time on the properties of medium-density fibreboard. Manufacture of particleboard based on cement bag and castor oil polyurethane resin, J.C.M. Cravo et al , Construction and Building Materials , 87. This study assessed the potential of cement packaging residues from building site wastes to produce particleboards. The results revealed that the packages have a high cement content and low lignin pulp; thus, the packaging of cement becomes an option for the manufacture of particle board. Optimization of press temperature and time for binderless particleboard manufactured from oil palm trunk biomass at different thickness levels, M. Baskarana et al , Materials Today Communications , 3. A set of experiments was designed with two numerical factors including press temperature and time ranging from 160 to 200 °C and from 20 to 30 min, respectively at three target thicknesses, namely 5, 10 and 15 mm. Based on the findings in this work internal bond strength, thickness swelling and water absorption of the panels improved with reduction of the panel thickness. Influence of technological factors on properties of chipboards based on a cardanol- containing polyurethane binder, S.A. Dozhdikov et al , Polymer Science Series D , 8 (2). To study the influence of technological factors upon physico-mechanical characteristics of chipboards containing a cardanol-containing polyurethane adhesive as a binder, a five-factor experiment was carried out twice in accordance with the Box-Wilson central composite design. The calculated optimal conditions for the chipboard pressing process were proven by experimental data.
