PREPARATION AND MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF PARTICLEBOARD MADE FROM MARITIME PINE AND GLUED WITH BIO-ADHESIVES BASED ON CORNSTARCH AND TANNINS

In this presented work, we describe the development and characterization of a new, environmentally friendly adhesive derived from cornstarch and tannins. The production of wood composites mainly relies on the petrochemical-based and formaldehyde-based adhesives such as urea formaldehyde (UF), phenol...
