In this study, the effect of piling storage method of Bagasse was studied on the physical and mechanical properties of particleboard. Wet depitted Bagasse was used. In this study, Bagasse storage conditions included two moisture content (45% and 55%) and 4 storage times (1.5, 3, 4.5, 6 months). At the first, Bagasse chemical properties (pH, acid and alkaline buffering capacity) were determined. Then particleboards were fabricated. The physical and mechanical properties of the boards were measured and statistically analyzed. The results showed that at lower Bagasse moisture content, the sample pH and alkaline buffering capacity were decreased and acid buffering capacity increased. Also board bending properties (modulus of rupture and modulus of elasticity) and thickness swelling after 2 and 24 hours immersion in the water were reduced. Bagasse chemical properties tend to be acidic up to storage time of 3 month and the minimum of board bending properties and internal bond were obtained in this storage time. The physical properties of boards were improved with increasing of storage time.
