Abstract The demand for particleboard has recently increased dramatically throughout the world, especially for housing construction and furniture manufacturing. In recent years, wood-based industries all over the world are facing difficulty in obtaining wood raw material. As a result the use of renewable resources such as natural fibers is now gaining increased interest in the production of polymer composite panels. Additives which have considerable scientific and technological interest are used. The present thesis contains three main chapters:- Chapter I: ”Introduction and literature review” This chapter represents an introduction and literature review concerned with natural fibers, polymer structure, natural fiber-polymer composites, treatment of natural fibers, particleboard, hybrid fillers, nanotechnology and nano fillers, radiation and finally industrial applications of natural fiberpolymer composites. |
