The corn stalks and industrial wood particles were mixed at ratios 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 % respectively. The suitability of corn stalks chips for particleboard production was examined. Urea formaldehyde resin was used as a binder in 3-layers particleboards. Produced panels were tested for certain mechanical and physical properties. The manufactured boards were tested according to EN standards. In addition, the chemical properties of corn stalks were evaluated. Experimental results indicated that increase in corn stalk chips in the mixture generally diminished the mechanical and physical properties.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessParticleboardcorn stalks (Zea mays indurate Sturt.)wood chipsphysical propertieschemical propertiesmechanical propertiesArticle612299306WOS:000376220000013Q2Q3
