ABSTRACT

Within the framework of the presented study properties of particleboards manufactured with a proportion of evening primrose straw were investigated depending on the type of the applied binding agent. Straw of evening primrose was used as a substitute of wood chips in the core of boards at 0, 5, 10, 15, 25, 50, 75 and 100% chip weight. UF, MUPF and PMDI resins were used as binding agents. Tests showed that depending on the applied binding agent total or partial substitution of wood chips with particles of evening primrose straw is feasible in the process of particleboard manufacture.

Key words: lignocellulose board, binding agents, evening primrose straw.
