Effects of ammonium sulphate hardener and amine compound on formaldehyde emission of particleboard bonded at varies levels of urea formaldehdye resin

Particleboard is an engineered wood that is manufactured from wood chips and synthetic resin or other suitable binder which is pressed. It is also known as a structural material that was made from wood particles, such as chips, shavings or even sawdust that are mechanically pressed into sheet form a...
