Structure Formation in Engineered Wood Using Wood Waste and Biopolyurethane [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials
This research aims to find suitable processing methods that allow the reuse of wood waste to produce wood waste-based engineered wood logs for construction that meet the strength requirements for structural timber for sawn structural softwood. Three types of wood waste were examined: wood packaging waste (W), waste from the construction and furniture ...
