Properties of particleboard manufactured from cultivated or Planted Acacia mangium

Samples of unsanded and sanded particleboard made from A. mangium and mixed tropical hardwood were examined for the suitability of using A. mangium as a raw material to produce particleboard on industrial scale. The physical and mechanical properties of the unsanded and sanded A. mangium and mixe...

A. mangium have the lower density 690 kg/mÂ³ for unsanded board and 679 kg/mÂ³ for sanded boards.
