Performance of Cunninghamia lanceolata / Uncaria Composite Particleboard by Qiaoyan Zhang, Longxu Wu, Huagang Liao, Qingqing Yang, Haiyuan Yang, Yang Yang, Xin He, Linjing Lan, De Li, Zhigang Wu

“…Particleboards were prepared with thinning wood of Cunninghamia lanceolata (Chinese fir) and wood shavings of waste Uncaria sinensis branches by using melamine-urea-formaldehyde resin as the adhesive. Influences of particle mass ratio of C. lanceolata to Uncaria, adhesive loading, and target density on internal bonding strength (IB), modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), thickness swelling rate of water absorption (TS), and water absorption (WA) of the composite particleboard were investigated. …”
