Summary.
Particleboards from acetylated wood flakes with various resins were pressed and compared with untreated control boards with respect to their weathering resistance and mechanical strength. The industrially used melamine, urea, and phenol resins showed a poor adhesion behavior to the acetylated flakes resulting in a high decrease of the mechanical strength of the particleboards. A novel type of apolar resin based on methylmelamines was developed and characterized. Using this resin particleboards with good mechanical strength and weathering stability could be produced.
