Methylene diphenyldiisocyanate (MDI) resin was used as the adhesive with the resin content of 4% for core particles and 50 g/m2 for bast fiber- woven sheets. The target board densities were set at 0.35, 0.45 and 0.55 g/cm3. The composite panels were evaluated with Japanese Industrial Standard for Particleboards (JIS A 5908- 2003).The results show that the composite panel has high modulus of rupture and internal bonding strength. The properties of 0.45 g/cm3 density composite panel are: MOR 20.4 MPa, MOE 1.94 MPa, IB 0.36 MPa, WA142%, TS 21%. Kenaf is a good raw material for making light-weight composite panels.展开更多
