One Layer Experimental Particleboard from Oil Palm Frond Particles and Empty Fruit Bunch Fibers

The aim of this study is to investigate physical and mechanical properties of experimental particleboards manufactured from mixing the oil palm fronds particles with empty fruit bunch fibers. Variables were two blending ratios (100:0 and 70:30), press temperature (160°C and 180°C) and press time...
