Effect Of Storage Time In Different Humidity Conditions On Mechanical And Physical Properties Of Hybrid Medium Density Fibreboard (MDF)

In this research, hybrid medium density fibreboard and medium density fibreboard (MDF) were produced by using rubberwood (RW) and empty fruit bunch (EFB) based on oven dried weight. RW fibres were obtained from Merbok MDF Sdn Bhd in Kedah. While, EFB fibres used to produce those board were obtained...
