Effect of Adhesive Spreading Rate on the Performance of Laminated Compressed Oil Palm Trunks

The large availability and cheap price of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) trunk makes it an attractive raw material for value-added applications, but its low density and high carbohydrate content are highly undesirable. In this work, oil palm trunk (OPT) was steam-pretreated and compressed at high temp...
