The properties of sandwich panels made of standard wood-based panels

Abstract

The properties of sandwich panels made of standard wood-based panels. The properties of sandwich panels made of standard wood-based panels were examined. Particleboards, MDF and OSB panels as well as plywood were used as internal and external layers of panels. Two types of adhesives: PUR and PVA were used to bind the layers. The physical and mechanical properties of glued sandwich panels were investigated. It was found out that OSB panels covered with plywood have the highest MOE and MOR values, and the panels with an internal layer composed of MDF have the lowest of WA and TS. It has been shown that regardless of the materials used, a panel glued with PUR achieves higher mechanical properties and the lowest WA and TS values.
