Effects of polyurethane resin on the physical and mechanical properties of wood fiber/palm kernel shell composite boards

This article investigates the effect of polyurethan (PU) resin as a binding agend for wood fiber (WF)_ and palm kernel shell (PKS) composite boardl in terms of physical and mechanical properties. A series of fiber board samples consisting of WF/PKS at a ratio of 85/15 with different percentage of PU...
