Abstract
This study was carried out to explore a new application of board and obtain fundamental properties for producing composite board from sawdust and orange peels. As the mixing rate of orange peels increased from 10% to 40%, water absorption, thickness swelling, modulus of rupture and brinell hardness decreased as follows: 94.1%∼86.5%, 27.2%∼18.0%, 65.1 kgf/cm 2∼39.2 kgf/cm2 and 195.3 kgf/cm2∼180.3 kgf/cm2, respectively. As the density of board increased from 0.4 g/cm3 to 0.8 g/cm3, thickness swelling, modulus of rupture and brinell hardness increased as follows: 6.4% ∼17.9%, 4.2 kgf/cm 2∼96.6 kgf/cm2 and 40.4 kgf/cm2∼196.2 kgf/cm2, respectively. But the water absorption decreased from 149.2% to 58.6%.
