LAB TESTING FOR P3 MOISTURE RESISTANT OVERLAID PARTICLEBOARDS MADE FROM WOOD RESIDUES
In Chile the amounts of wood sawdust, shavings, and chips available is around 2.72 million, 340 thousand, and 4.25 million m3/year, respectively, and about 30% of this material is employed in the manufacture of particleboards. Two types of particleboards were made from wood residues as moisture-resi...
