Investigation on physical and mechanical properties of medium density fiberboard produced from Eucalyptus steriaticalyx fibers
The objective of this study was to determine the suitability of the wood produced by adaptable eucalypt species for MDF production. Eucalyptus steriaticalyx fibers were produced using different levels of steaming time (5 and 10 minutes), and then medium density fiberboards were produced using these...
