Abstract
Hybrid wood panels can be produced with different particle or veneer sizes, forest species or even mixtures of synthetic materials, with the aim of reusing wood particles and generating new products. The present study aimed to verify the production process of hybrid panels formed with particles and veneers of Pinus taeda wood and urea‒formaldehyde resin. The panels were produced in four different compositions, with a nominal density of 0.65 g/cm³, and their quality was evaluated through their physical and mechanical properties. The addition of veneers in the traditional particleboard system increased the density of the hybrid panels and improved the mechanical properties. The properties of the MOR and MOE in static bending and screw withdrawal were favored using veneers on the panel faces. The internal bonding of the panels was not affected by their composition. The addition of veneers to the particleboard improved the dimensional stability of the panel.
