Abstract

In this investigation feasibility of Paulownia tomentosa wood in particleboards production were prepared at four different Combination of 100%,75%,50%,and 25%(base of  paulownia) , three different press time of 4,5,and 6 minutes.
 Based on the EN standards physical and mechanical properties including MOR, MOE, IB, and thickness swelling (after 2 and 24 immersion in water) were tested.
Based on the factorial experimental design at completely random tests were analyses. The results showed that utilization of paulownia wood in particleboard production in 5 minutes and up to 50% paulownia wood particles were optimized.
