| Summary: | ABSTRACT
Hybrid particleboard properties from acacia mangium
and 'petal belalang' (leucaena leucocephala) using
urea-formaldehyde resin.
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of fast growing
species, Acacia Mangium and 'Petai Belalang' (Leucaena leucocephala) as
alternative to supplement the rubberwood in manufactured of particleboard.
The focus was on particleboard which produced from different resin content
(8%, 10% and 12%) and ratio of species Acacia (100%), Acacia + Petai
Belalang (30% + 70%), Acacia + Petai Belalang (50% + 50%), Acacia + Petai
Belalang (70% + 30%), and Petai Belalang (100%) The particleboards were
tested for their mechanical and physical properties based on Japanese
Industrial Standard (JIS A 5908 : 2003) requirement. Wood ratio of species
had significant effects on MOR, MOE, IB, TS and WA On other hand, resin
content showed significant effect on TS and WA From the study it was
revealed that 100% or homogeneous board from Acacia species and with resin
content of 12% had the highest value for MOR (1712MPa), MOE (2127MPa),
and the best TS (1323%) and WA (6437%) value. |
