The influence of UF in particles on the formaldehyde emission and its mechanical properties were investigated. The experimental results showed that the formaldehyde emission released decreased linearly with consumption UF-low formaldehyde- particle. Formaldehyde emission was below 0.3 mg/L when the weight percentage of UF particles was up to 60%. The formaldehyde emission from urea-formaldehyde resin-impregnated paper overlaid particleboard was 17% lower than UF ordinary (E2) for particleboard. Because, the bending strength, internal bonding strength decreased with increasing low-formaldehyde UF. However, the percentage thickness swelling of the particleboard decreased with increasing UF-low formaldehyde. In addition, there were significant positive relationships between the UF-low formaldehyde and the bending strength and internal bonding strength of the particleboard, which allowed evaluation of the properties of the particleboard made with UF-low formaldehyde Keywords    Mechanical properties, UF, particleboard, formaldehyde  چکیده    موضوع این تحقیق مطالعه اثر تخته خرده چوب های ساخته شده با چسب اوره فرمالدهید دارای فرمالدهید پایین برای استفاده در مصارف درون ساختمانی است. تخته خرده چوب با چسب UF با فرمالدهید کم (E1) ساخته شد. خواص مکانیکی تخته های ساخته شده با چسب E1 اندازه گیری و نسبت به چسب E2 مقایسه شد. چسب UF مصرفی دارای 0.3 mg/L فرمالدهید آزاد برای رزین با غلظت 60 درصد بود. انتشار فرمالدهید رزین E1 نسبت به رزین E2 مقدار 17 درصد کمتر است. با استفاده از رزین E1 نسبت به E2 , مقاومت های مکانیکی و چسبندگی داخلی کاهش پیدا کرد. اما انتشار فرمالدهید آزاد ناشی از مصرف چسب E1 کمتر از E2 محاسبه شد References    1.        Rowell, R.M. and Winandy, J.E., “Chemistry of wood strength”, Handbook of wood chemistry and wood composites, CRC Press, London, (2006), 303-347. 2.        Baumann, M.G.D., Lorenz, L.F., Batterman, S.A. and Zhang, G.Z., “Aldehyde emission from particleboard and medium density fiberboard products”, Forest Products Journal, Vol. 50, (2000), 75–82. 3.        Wang, W.L. and Gardner, D.J., “Investigation of volatile organic compound press emissions during particleboard production: Part I.
