presented in Table 8. At 4% MDI content, even at a lower density level, leave-based particleboard had higher strength properties than its 8% UF-bonded counterparts. MDI-bonded sycamore ( Platanus orientalis ) leaves particleboard was pro- duced by Aghakhani et al. [132]. The particleboard was re- ported to have achieved desired properties for partition, wall, and ceiling paneling applications. Board density and pressing time is the most influential factors in the physical and me- chanical properties of the particleboard, while the effect of pressing temperature is less significant. Higher density and longer pressing time produced particleboard with higher mechanical properties and dimensional stability. Wood par- ticles could be added to improve the performance of sycamore leaves particleboard. Pirayesh et al. [133] reported that the combination of 20% sycamore leaves and industrial wood

particles resulted in particleboard with increased MOR, MOE, and IB values.

Grass-based particleboard

From the literature, grass-based particleboard is relatively scarce. There are only five grasses identified to be converted into particleboard by several researchers, namely Perennial ryegrass ( Lolium perenne L.), Reed canary grass ( Phalaris arun- dinacea ), Jose tall wheatgrass ( Agropyron elongatum ), Vetiver grass ( Chrysopogon zizanioides ), and bamboo. Perennial ryegrass, also called English ryegrass, winter ryegrass, or ray grass, is an important pasture and forage plant cultivated worldwide. Reed canary grass is a tall, perennial bunchgrass that mainly grows as ornamental plants. It is regarded as an
