ABSTRACT

In this paper, it was consider the study of the use of sugarcane bagasse and wood particles, residues from the agricultural and the furniture industry, in order to add value to such materials. To add value to these materials it will be utilized in the manufacturing of hybrid panels consisting of wood particles and sugarcane bagasse in certain proportions (20%, 40% and 60%). For the production it was used the bi-component polyurethane resin based on castor oil. Analysis of the products was established based on the physical-mechanical standard NBR 14.810:2006. The hybrid panels were analyzed according to the data obtained in relation to the American standard ANSI A208.1-1999, in order to determine the best treatment for the possible use as a lining in agricultural buildings. Moreover, the hybrid panels were contrasted with panels of other formulations, with similar density. It was evident that the treatment constituting of 40% of sugar cane bagasse and 60% of wood particles had the best physical-mechanical, and showed a potential for the use in non- structural applications.
