characteristic:

1. Basic definition and production process

Composition: Made from wood processing residues (such as sawdust, sawdust) or recycled wood, bonded with adhesives (such as urea formaldehyde resin, phenolic resin).

Production process: including steps such as sawdust classification, drying, gluing, paving, hot pressing, etc. Some high-end products will undergo surface lamination or veneer treatment.

2. Main features

(1) Physical performance
Strength and stability: Multi layer structures (such as three or five layers) are designed to enhance bending and compression resistance, but overall strength is lower than plywood or solid wood.

Density and weight: The density range is wide (280-800 kg/m ³), low-density boards are lighter but have lower strength, while high-density boards are more durable.

Moisture resistance: Ordinary particleboard is prone to moisture expansion, but adding paraffin or moisture-proof adhesive can improve water resistance (such as “moisture-proof particleboard”) 96.

(2) Processing and Application

Easy to process: capable of sawing, drilling, and edge sealing, suitable for mechanized production, commonly used in furniture cabinets, door cores, partitions, etc.

Surface decorative: It can be improved in appearance by imitating the texture of solid wood through veneers (such as melamine veneer, PVC, veneer) or spraying processes.

Economy: Cost lower than solid wood and plywood, suitable for mass production.

(3) Environmental friendliness

Formaldehyde release: Environmental protection levels are E0, E1 (suitable for indoor use), E2 and above (limited to outdoor or temporary use only), and high-quality products comply with FSC/PEFC certification 29.

Sustainability: Made from waste wood, reducing resource waste by 36.

Types:

Ordinary particleboard: used for furniture substrates or building templates.

Moisture resistant particleboard: with added waterproofing agent, suitable for kitchens and bathrooms.

Decorative particleboard: surface coated with melamine film (such as ecological board), directly used for furniture 610.

Hollow particle board: Lightweight design, used for door cores, with both sound insulation and thermal insulation properties.

Disadvantages and precautions

Durability: Weak nail grip, easy to loosen under long-term load.

Environmental risk: Poor quality products may exceed formaldehyde standards, and E0/E1 grade 98 should be selected.

Edge treatment: Edge sealing is required to avoid moisture absorption or release of harmful substances.

Application scenarios:

Furniture: Bookshelf, cabinet, conference table substrate 106.

Architecture: partition walls, ceilings, temporary formwork 9.

Packaging: Logistics pallets, cardboard box lining 3.
