Properties Of Particleboards Made From Oil Palm Trunk With Addition Of Poly-3-Hydroxybutyrate

This study was designed to evaluate the influence of adding poly-3-hydroxybutyrate [P(3HB)] on the properties of particleboards made from oil palm (Elaeis guinensis) trunk. Two types of boards which are particleboards made up of steam treated particles and untreated particleboards, were manufactured...
