Morphological structures of rattan waste binderless particleboard: effect of acid treatment

This study aims to investigate the effect of acid treatment on rattan fibers that used as raw material in manufacturing binderless particleboards. Acid treatment was done on rattan by boiling rattan in the diesel oil to prevent insects and fungi attacks. The rattan wastes gained from furniture manuf...
