Kwak, J.H. | Oh, Y.S. (Yeoungnam University, Kyongsan, Republic of Korea)
The Korean hybrid poplar, Populus alba¡¿glandulosa, was used as raw material for the making of particleboard(PB). Two types of PBs were manufactured with synthesized urea-formaldehyde resin using a 162¡É hot-press for 4 and 5 minutes with a 6 percent resin solids level on an ovendried particle weight basis. The PBs were tested for physical strength and dimensional stability properties using SATM D 1037 procedures. The PB test results showed that physical strength and demensional stability properties were not significantly different by PB type and press time
