PARTICLEBOARDS OF AGROINDUSTRIAL WASTES

ABSTRACT

The present study aimed to develop particleboards of low density with peanut shell, coconut husk fiber green (hybrid) and two-component polyurethane resin based on castor oil. The experimental panels were manufactured with pArtigos up to 8mm and 15% polyurethane resin. The pressing was carried out at 5.0 MPa for 10 minutes at 100°C of temperature. The physical-mechanical properties of the material were determined as recommended by ABNT 14810:2006. The results demonstrated a mechanical performance that meets the recommendations established by normative ANSI A208.1-1999 and ABNT 14.810-2:2006.
