Abstract

Wood-based composites encompass a range of products, from fiberboard to laminated beams. Wood-based composites are used for a number of non-structural and structural applications in product lines ranging from panels for interior covering purposes to panels for exterior uses and in furniture and support structures in buildings. Medium density fiberboard (MDF) is one of the appreciated engineering materials among Wood composites. Regarding its better properties, there are some limitations in its applications, such as lower strengths under load constructions, higher creep in changing climates, etc. Reinforcement of an engineering material can open a wide spectrum of interesting applications. Since the last century, reinforcement of wood composites was in the interest of wood technologists. Our objective in this project is to try to increase MOR of MDF so as to widen its scope of applications.
