PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PANEL BASED ON OUTER BARK PARTICLES OF WHITE BIRCH: MIXED PANELS WITH WOOD PARTICLES VERSUS WOOD FIBRES

The use of outer white birch bark in canoes is an example of its oldest use by the first nations in Canada. This use confirms the hydrophobic characteristics of this bark, which can be capitalized on by using it in the outer layers of three-layer mixed composite panels in order to protect them from...
