Abstract
Described is a method for manufacturing a composite panel. The method broadly includes the steps of introducing a composite mixture into a press or mould, the composite mixture comprising about 4% to about 30% by weight of a binder that comprises a particularised plastic having a particle size of less than 4 mm, and the remainder being provided by a substrate. The composite mixture is then subjected to pressure sufficient to decrease the thickness of the composite mixture and is heated to about 100° ° C. to about 220° ° C. to form the wood composite panel.
Claims26
A method for manufacturing a composite panel comprising
- a) introducing a composite mixture into a press or mould, the composite mixture comprising
- about 4% to about 30% by weight of a binder that comprises particularised plastic having a particle size of less than 4 mm, and
- about 70 to about 96% by weight of a plurality of substrate,
- about 0.1 to about 3% by weight of the binder of a crosslinking agent,
- b) subjecting the composite mixture to pressure of about 3 MPa to about 10 MPa and heating the composite mixture to about 100° C. to about 220° C. to form the composite panel.
