ABSTRACT


Thin, dry-dimensioned HDF boards commonly employed in furniture industry are sealed with fillers prior to the application of surface coating materials. In industrial conditions, considerable differences were found in the consumption of the filler for identical types of boards obtained from different manufacturers. A research hypothesis was put forward which assumes that the above-mentioned differences in the filler consumption can be attributed to THE varying surface absorbability of individual boards resulting from differences in their surface geometrical structure (SGS). The presented study compares and analyses correlations between selected SGS parameters and filler consumption applied by an industrial spreader.

Key words: roughness, HDF boards, filling.
