Abstract
Abstract
The aim of present study was to determine the relationship between ultrasonic wave velocity and mechanical properties of particleboard panels. For this purpose, homogenous and layering particleboards were made by 0/7 g/cm3 density and 16 mm thickness. After conditioning and preparing samples, ultrasonic wave velocity was measured in different directions of samples. Then modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture and internal bonding of samples were measured by mechanical test machine. Result indicated that ultrasonic wave velocity of particleboard samples was higher in longitudinal direction than other directions. Relationship between ultrasonic wave velocity and mechanical properties was determined by linear correlation regression. Correlations between ultrasonic wave velocity and modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture and internal bonding were significant in thickness direction of particleboard samples. Correlations between ultrasonic wave velocity and modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture and internal bonding were significant in thickness direction of particleboard samples. Correlations between ultrasonic wave velocity and modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture and internal bonding were significant in thickness direction of particleboard samples.
