Properties of commercial fiberboard from Sesbania aculeate and Tamarix aphylla
This study determined the properties of 3.2 mm Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) from a commercial production line. The mixture of fibers from Sesbania aculeate (80%) and Tamarix aphylla (20%) was bound with urea formaldehyde for laboratory testing. Effects of production line speed, fiber moisture c...

| description | This study determined the properties of 3.2 mm Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) from a commercial production
line. The mixture of fibers from Sesbania aculeate (80%) and Tamarix aphylla (20%) was bound with urea formaldehyde for
laboratory testing. Effects of production line speed, fiber moisture content, and production shift on board properties were
assessed. Physical and mechanical properties of the panels were determined according to European standards. This study showed
that the production of MDF during the evening shift was ideal, with a line speed of 6.00 m/min and fiber moisture content of 8.70
%, compared to morning and night shifts. The production line speed, fiber moisture content, and operation shift affected the
properties of MDF boards but met the minimum requirements in the standards. The mix of fibers is a viable combination for
commercial production. |
