Difference between Particle Board and Plywood
Particle Board and Plywood: Particle Board Particleboard is made by heat pressing the waste-wood products like wood chips or jute-stick, sawmill shavings, sawdust with an adhesive together. Compression is applied to the liquid mixture so that the wood chips are evenly distributed, and the chips are parallel to the surface. In the flat-pressed practical board, the chips in the surface layer are usually thin, and that makes the surface part dense and compact than the middle part of the particleboard. In order to make the particle board fireproof, insect-proof, and water-resistant, certain chemical agents like used dyes, wax, wetting, and release agents are used. A suitable or synthetic resin is used to make it strong. Particleboards are otherwise called Chipboards. Veneered particleboard is preferred over veneered plywood boards in dry areas because of its lower cost, stability, and convenience. Use of Particle board Particle boards are used in numerous ways because of their light ...
