ABSTRACT



The aim of the presented investigations was to analyse the influence of parameters of particleboards production on cutting properties of boards. Parameters that varied were temperature (180 and 220 °C) and pressure (2.5 and 4.0 MPa). Factors to define the cutting properties were: the work of fracture and the work of chip formation. Those factors describe the general work of cutting. Sharp and blunt tools were used. Cutting tests were carried out by using an equipped microtome technique.

Key words: work of fracture, work of chip formation, particleboard, linear cutting..
