ABSTRACT


Recovered wood from palettes and containers was disintegrated to the form of chips. Pulps to the production of fiberboards: insulation boards, hardboards and MDF at variable defibration and rafination parameters were obtained from these chips. Chips and pulps were characterized by determination of percent shares of fractions obtained by sorting on a sieve sorters. The fractional composition of chips and pulps from recovered wood was compared with fractional composition of standard chips and pulps, respectively. The effect of addition of pulp from recovered wood on the properties of insulation boards, hardboards and MDF boards was examined.

Key words: chips, pulps, palettes, containers, fibreboard properties.
