Abstract Mechanical properties of wood–plastic composites are influenced by a particle size and surface morphology of wood flour. Generally various sizes of wood flour are produced from single solid wood even if the single process is used. If the different particle size of wood flour is produced from different wood tissue such as earlywood (EW) and latewood (LW), not only particle size but also density and chemical composition of wood flour might influence the mechanical property of final products. This study aims to investigate the relationship between particle size and their origin; EW and LW. EW and LW were separately milled to produce the EW and LW flour by dry and wet milling. Hyperspectral images ranging 400–1000 nm for each wood flour were used as training data. Discriminant model of EW and LW flour developed by PLS-DA showed over 0.77 of accuracy. Then the EW and LW were dry and wet milled together and screened by three different sieve openings to obtain different particle size wood flour. Discriminant model was applied for the hyperspectral images of each size of wood flour to estimate the EW and LW ratio. The result showed that increasing sieve opening resulted in the increasing ratio of LW for dry milled wood flours. The results suggest that the EW was easily pulverized than LW.
