Evaluating the quality of the medium density fiberboard made from kenaf core and stalk

Utilization of kenaf core and stalk for the production of medium density fiberboard was investigated. Control boards were produced using poplar wood fibers and compared with kenaf boards. Urea formaldehyde resin was used. Medium density fiberboards were made at two densities of 0.55 and 0.75 g/cm3. ...
