Investigation of physical and mechanical properties of particleboard made from Apricot pruning and industrial wood particles

For this study, the pruning of Apricot tree and industrial wood particles were used. The combination percent of Apricot wood particles (0, 15, 30 and 45) and press time (5 and 7 minute) were the variables of experiment. Results showed that with increasing the percent of Apricot wood particles, the a...

Sumario:For this study, the pruning of Apricot tree and industrial wood particles were used. The combination percent of Apricot wood particles (0, 15, 30 and 45) and press time (5 and 7 minute) were the variables of experiment. Results showed that with increasing the percent of Apricot wood particles, the amount of MOE and MOR of panels enhance significantly. Despite the internal bonding (IB) strength of panels decreased with this enhancement, the strength of panels had higher amount than its standard amount. The water absorption resistance and the thickness swelling of panels for 24 hours were improved significantly with increasing the Apricot wood particles percent. In all cases, the effect of press time was not significant. Finally, the combination of 45% Apricot pruning and the shorter press time (5 min) was identified as the best treatment.
