Johari, Khairulazhar and Mohd Yahaya, Nurul Huda and Aziz, Nur Zuwairiah (2010) Properties of Oriented Strand Board (OSB) from Acacia Mangium (Akasia) and Gmelina Arborea (Yamani). [Student Project] (Unpublished)

Abstract

Oriented Strand Board (OSB) from A.mangium and G.arborea are one of wood composite panel. OSB is the similar strength properties with plywood. The strength properties was include modules of elasticity (MOE) modulus of rupture (MOR),internal bonding (IB),percent of thickness swelling and also percent of water absortion. The main study and the main purpose of this study is to determine mechanical and physical properties of OSB using A.mangium and G.arborea as a raw material. All of the specific density that was targeted is 700kg/m3. This properties to know whether A.mangium and G.arborea are suitable are not in a production of OSB. The trial resin content is 10% using urea formaldehyde. It is to make comparable with Malaysian Standard whether suitable to commercialize or not.
