Bark residues are mostly used for thermal energy production. However, a better utilization of that resource could be as raw material for particleboard manufacturing. The use of bark in wood particleboard manufacturing is currently viewed negatively due to the fact that an excessive bark content in the furnish produces significant adverse effects on strength properties and dimensional stability of the boards. Strategies could be found to improve some properties of particleboard made from bark. The effects of bark particle content and geometry on the physical and mechanical properties of the panels including the modulus of elasticity (MOE), modulus of rupture (MOR), internal bond.
