Abstract

Wood – based composite panel products (WBCP) are manufactured from veneer, wood particles, strands or fibres bind together with different types of adhesives such as urea-formaldehyde resin, phenol-formaldehyde resin, melamine formaldehyde resin, methylene diphenyl diisocyanate or polyurethane resins. The nature and the quality of the raw material and of the adhesives determine the characteristics of the products (mechanical properties, water resistance, dimensional stability, surface quality and machinability).
