Brief Description
Description : | Medium density boards or Composite boards are a type of board used in false partition, ceiling, table tops, furniture fixtures, mirror backings, etc. These are high grade composite material usually made various types of cellulosic materials. A board manufactured from particles of wood or other lingo-cellulosic materials agglomerated, formed and pressed together by use of an organic or synthetic binder together with one or more of the agents such as heat, pressure, moisture, catalyst, etc. CSIR-NEIST has developed a process technology for making medium density composite boards from agricultural wastes like paddy husk, paddy straw and certain reed materials. |
