1958 Status of the Composition Board Industry
In 1956 insulation board, hardboard, and particleboard production had increased 25 percent, 65 percent, and 51 percent, respectively, over 1948 figures. Insulation board, produced in 23 U.S. and three Canadian […]
Forest Products Journal 1959
A brief look at raw material usage in the furniture and cabinet industries in the southern United States
Although particleboard and medium density fiberboard are primary products used in the manufacture of value-added wood products such as furniture, cabinets, and millwork, other raw materials such as engineered lumber […]
Forest Products Journal 2001
A Changing Hardwood Market: the Furniture Industry
In 1960, about 2.9 billion board feet of wood was consumed in furniture. Hardwoods accounted for 82 percent of all the lumber used. Changing styles and designs account for most […]
Forest Products Journal 1965
A Direct Scanning Densitometer to Measure Density Profiles in Wood Composite Products
The intent of this work was to establish a procedure for collecting and analyzing profile data from the scanning densitometer, and to compare the procedure and results for the densitometer […]
Forest Products Journal 1986
A Division Report on Wood Composition Board Industry
This report is an annual FPRS review of the status of the hardboard, particleboard, and softboard industries from 30 key personnel working in research, production, or sales of wood composition […]
Forest Products Journal 1960
A Lignin Adhesive System for Flakeboard Production
A new renewable adhesive system based on pulpmill effluent is described for flakeboard production. The system involves base activation of wood flake surfaces with 3N sodium hydroxide, followed by application […]
Forest Products Journal 1986
A Look At Degradation in Particleboards for Exterior Use
This discussion is divided into three parts: 1) A discussion of the properties that exterior particleboard must have for various uses, based on the supposition that the uses are divided […]
Forest Products Journal 1967
A Look At Forest Products Research in Peace and War
Research in forest products can be classified under four broad headings, solid wood, modified wood, fiber products, and chemical conversion and chemical constitutents. Research accomplishments include improvements in joints and […]
Forest Products Journal 1952
A Method for Proportioning Resin and Wax in Particleboard
The cost of additives in a particleboard process represents 40 to 60 percent of the total direct manufacturing costs. Fifty percent of this is for wax and resin, which, for […]
Forest Products Journal 1960
A New Dry Process Multi-Ply Board
A description is given of a new dry process for making composition board from whole, relatively thick, cross-cut wafers with ends tapered in thickness. Core stock with a modulus of […]
Forest Products Journal 1955
A New Method for Evaluation of Internal Strength of Particleboard
A good relationship exists between torsion shear and internal-bond strength for 53 Canadian-made commercial particleboards. This relationship is independent of specimen sizes between 2 and 1/2-inch square and is applicable […]
Forest Products Journal 1969
A New Method for Making Particleboard Fire-Retardant
A simple and effective method for making particleboard fire-retardant is reported. This process involves the hot- pressing of fire-retardant chemicals into the particleboard through surface impregnation with suitable temperature, pressure […]
Forest Products Journal 1972
A New Technique for Evaluating Show-Through of Particle Board Cores
A light-reflective method with high projection angle was devised to evaluate the show-through (telegraphing) pattern of particle board cores. A high-gloss, black decorative face, coated with a uniform kerosene film […]
Forest Products Journal 1960
A Procedure for Quickly Evaluating Dimensional Stability of Particleboard
Describes an accelerated test for measuring the dimensional stability of particleboard and other sheet materials. It is based on the differences in linear and thickness dimensions, a) as received, b) […]
Forest Products Journal 1967
A profile of the U.S. pallet and container industry
Data from pallet and container manufacturers in the United States were gathered to determine the volumes of new wood materials consumed by the industry. Estimated total industry use of hardwood […]
Forest Products Journal 1994
A Proposed New Test for Accelerated Aging of Phenolic Resin-Bonded Particleboard
Two laboratories made independent comparison tests of phenolic resin-bonded particleboard using the two methods outlined. Actual test values and the conditions under which these values were obtained were presented. The […]
Forest Products Journal 1966
A Proposed Plug Tension Test for Particle Board
A tension test using a 1/2-inch diameter plug to determine internal bond of particleboard is shown to be easier and faster than the conventional 2 by 2 inoh specimen adhered […]
Forest Products Journal 1965
A Quantitative Study of Some Factors Affecting the Abrasiveness of Particleboard
A laboratory study was made of the abrasiveness of three-layered southern pine particleboard. Using the same wood source and conditions, boards were made with a range of resin solids from […]
Forest Products Journal 1971
A Rapid Accelerated-Aging Test Procedure for Phenolic Particleboard
An assessment was made of the German standard accelerated-aging test for the retention of internal bond strength in phenolic particleboard which has been boiled for 2 hours. It was found […]
Forest Products Journal 1971
A Research Program to Determine the Advisability of Engaging in the Particleboard Business
If a mill owner is interested in venturing into the particleboard business he should first research all technical and economic aspects. This can be done in the following steps: l) […]
Forest Products Journal 1957
A Review of Recent Glues and Gluing Research Applied to Particleboard
A brief discussion of adhesion in general is followed by sections dealing more specifically with recent research related to particleboard. Wood factors relevant to adhesion are wettability, surface effects, aging, […]
Forest Products Journal 1969
A Search for Better Particle Board Adhesives
Urea-formaldehyde resin normally used in particleboard does not resist the combination of heat and moisture. To date, the most durable particleboards have been obtained with phenolic resins. Fundamentally, two types […]
Forest Products Journal 1959
A Study of Certain Operating and Material Variables of the 25-Foot Tunnel Flamespread Test
Six operating and one material variable of the 25-foot tunnel furnace test method (ASTM E-84) were studied using 3/4 inch particleboard. The variables of draft velocity, intake gate height, material […]
Forest Products Journal 1973
Accelerated Aging of Phenolic Resin Bonded Particleboard
Three-year and 5-year outdoor test fence physical data were completed and compared against two accelerated aging tests for phenolic resin-bonded wood particleboards – ASTM D-1037-64 and WCAMA Test Method 6.1. […]
