Influence of the multiday and continuous hot press on the physical, mechanical and formaldehyde emission properties of the particleboard

Abstract: In this study, Its the influence of according to press, particleboards produced in two different press types which were multiday and continuous hot press, the thickness, density, bending strength, modulus of elasticity, internal bond, surface soundness, withdrawal of screw resistance, moisture, thickness swelling, water absorption, formaldehyde emission content were researched. 18 mm x 2100 mm x 2800 mm size particleboards were manufactured on the production line which was using urea-formaldehyde (F:U;1,07 moles), and 30 % pine, 40 % oak, 20 % beech and 10 % poplar waste mixture of the wood materials. According to results of the tests performed after the multiday and continuous hot press production of the boards; thickness (0,63 %), bending strength (1,27 %), moisture content (0,47 %), thickness swelling (37 %), and water absorption (39,9 %), modulus of elasticity (11,35 %), internal bond (7,22 %) were increased according to multiday hot press while density (2,7 %), surface soundness (18,81 %), withdrawal of screw resistance (14 %) and formaldehyde (57,12 %) decreased. Formaldehyde content,surface soundness, withdrawal of screw resistance are the most prominent properties influenced by continuous hot press.
