One Layer Experimental Particleboard from Oil Palm Frond Particles and Empty Fruit Bunch Fibers
The aim of this study is to investigate physical and mechanical properties of experimental particleboards manufactured from mixing the oil palm fronds particles with empty fruit bunch fibers. Variables were two blending ratios (100:0 and 70:30), press temperature (160°C and 180°C) and press time...

| description | The aim of this study is to investigate physical and mechanical properties of experimental particleboards
manufactured from mixing the oil palm fronds particles with
empty fruit bunch fibers. Variables were two blending ratios
(100:0 and 70:30), press temperature (160°C and 180°C) and
press time (180 and 300 s). Experimental boards with a target density of 750 kg m-3 were manufactured from these two particles and fibers blended with urea formaldehyde resin and compressed into targeted thickness. The effect of these manufacturing conditions on bending strength, internal
bonding, water absorption and thickness swelling were
determined. From this research, it can be concluded that
hybridization of fibers with fronds particles improved some
properties of particleboard. Empty fruit bunch fibers and
fronds particleboard showed better modulus of rupture and
internal bonding than fronds particleboards. |
