Abstract
Gypsum is a mineral binder widely use in the manufacture of gypsum plasterboard for panelling purpose. A study was conducted on the feasibility of utilising oil palm stem fibres as the reinforcing material in the manufacture of gypsum-bonded particleboard. In the first part of the study nine series of GBP were made at the densities 1000 1150 1300 kg/m and wood:gypsum ratios 1:2.5 1:3.0 and 1:3.5. Results showed that boards produced at a minimum density of 1150 kg/m and wood:gypsum ratio 1:2.5 satisfied the physical and mechanical requirements of commercial GBP. In the second part of the study six series of GBP at target density 1150 kg/m were made using different particle sizes and mixed dried and undried oil palm particles. The physical and mechanical properties of the boards produced are discussed.
