The purpose of this study was to evaluation of impact factors, which are temperature and relative humidity on formaldehyde emission from MDF(Medium Density Fiberboard). The test was carried out at 4 specimens that were different of temperature and humidity by using small chamber system. Formaldehyde was sampled and analyzed by HPLC. The results of this study were as follows; 1) When the temperature increased from 25 to $35^{\circ}C$ at 50%, the emission rate of formaldehyde increased 1.0-1.6 times. 2) When the RH increased from 50% to 80% at $25^{\circ}C$, the emission rate of formaldehyde decreased 0.6 times. 3) The enhancement effect of temperature on Formaldehyde under RH of 50% was more significant than under RH of 80%.

Wood fibers for medium density fiberboard (MDF) was used in the filler layer of the white duplex board for increasing thickness and bulk of the board. The MDF fibers and the old corrugated container (OCC) furnish were refined, and mixed together to form paperboard. At optimum mixing ratios and refining degrees, stiffness and tensile strength of the MDF fiber-containing board were higher than those of the board with 100% OCC. It was found that there was possibility to reduced basis weight of the filler layer down to 90% of the all OCC furnish by judicious selection of the mixing ratio and the refining method of the MDF fibers. Drainage rate increase and potential drying energy savings were additional benefits.

This paper focuses on how modem data mining can be integrated with real-time relational databases and commercial data warehouses to improve reliability in real-time. An important Issue for many manufacturers is the development of relational databases that link key product attributes with real-time process parameters. Helpful data for key product attributes in manufacturing may be derived from destructive reliability testing. Destructive samples are taken at periodic time intervals during manufacturing, which might create a long time-gap between key product attributes and real-time process data. A case study is briefly summarized for the medium density fiberboard (MDF) industry. MDF is a wood composite that is used extensively by the home building and furniture manufacturing industries around the world. The cost of unacceptable MDF was as large as 5% to 10% of total manufacturing costs. Prevention can result In millions of US dollars saved by using better Information systems.

Stress and fatigue life analyses are performed to enhance a fatigue life of a heating drum of the roller press for medium density fiberboard. The finite element method employing the submodel is used to analyze stress concentration in the journal of the heating drum. The fatigue life is evaluated by the stress-life theory. Two modified designs of the journal are suggested and evaluated to reduce the maximum stress and to increase the fatigue life Their structural reliabilities are verified in terms of the yield strength and the design life.

This study was carried out to use carbonized medium density fiberboard (MDF) for the replacement of sound absorbing material. Carbonization treatment was performed to improve sound absorption property for MDF at carbonizing temperatures of $500^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, $900^{\circ}C$ and $1100^{\circ}C$. As the carbonization temperature increased, the results of the observation by scanning electron microscope (SEM) demonstrated that the fibers exhibited a more compressed morphology within the surface section of the MDF than those within the middle section of MDF. As the carbonizing temperature increased, the cavity increased. The sound absorption coefficient increased between the temperatures of $500^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$, but decreased at a temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$. The sound absorption properties of the carbonized MDF and the non-carbonized MDF were compared. The maximum sound absorption coefficient of the carbonized MDF was 12.38%. This was almost double of the value of the non-carbonized MDF.

This study was performed to determine the characteristics of physical and mechanical properties of domestic wood based materials; plywood, particleboard, medium density fiberboard. Main items of tested properties were panel size, moisture content, water absorption, linear expansion and thickness swelling, glue bond shear strength, bending properties(stress at proportional limit, modulus of rupture. modulus of elasticity), tensile strength, screw holding strength, and internal bond as neccessary. the results were discussed mainly with Korean Standards. The obtained conclusions are as follows; 1. Length and width of 3mm thin plywood(3-ply) and 12mm thick plywood(7-ply) were satished with KS-standard, but thicknesses of these panels were not- passed tolerance limit except one of eight makers. 2. Length and width of particleboard and medium density fiberboard were greater than the tolerance limit value of KS standard, but the thicknesses of these panels were passed this value. 3. Moisture contents of 12mm thick and 3mm thin plywood were satisfied with KS-standard except one mill made 3mm thin plywood. 4. Moisture absortion of plywood was not passed tolerance limit of KS-standard but particleboard was satisfied with this standard value. 5. Dry and wet shear strengths in glue bond of 3mm thin plywood were not reached to KS-standard, but those of 12mm thick plywood were sufficiently satisfied with KS standrad. 6. Modulus of ruptures, parallel to grain and perpendicular to grain of plywood, and particleboard and medium density fiberboard were satisfied with KS-standard. 7. Tensile strengths, parallel to grain and perpendicular to grain of plywood were satisfied with allowance stress of US product standard PS 1-74. 8. Screw holding strength of particleboard was not reached to KS standard, but internal bond was satisfied with KS standard.

Wood composites are a hygroscopic material and have ability to exchange its moisture content with air. This study investigated the formaldehyde emission and moisture content change of four wood composites (particleboard (PB), medium density fiberboard (MDF), high density fiberboard (HDF), laminated HDF (L-HDF)) as a function of bake-out temperature and time. The composites were baked out for 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 days at temperatures of $20{\pm}2$, $35{\pm}2$, and $50{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ in a dry oven. The moisture content change was used to determine the emission bake-out of the composites. Best bake-out time results were obtained with after 7 days all composites. Formaldehyde emission values of composites decreased with decreasing moisture content for both temperatures. The formaldehyde emission results of bake-out temperature 35 and $50^{\circ}C$ showed a similar tendency.

본 연구는 중밀도섬유판(MDF)의보드두께에 따른 수평밀도분포(HDD: horizontal density distribution)를 조사하기 위해 수행하였다. 생산공장에서 제조된 보드두께가 다른 5 종류 즉 2 mm, 4.5 mm, 9 mm, 18 mm 및 30 mm의 원판을 두 가지 다른 시편크기 즉 $500{\times}500\;mm$와 $120{\times}120\;mm$로 제작하여 수평밀도분포를 측정하였다. 전체적으로MDF의 밀도는 보드두께가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 가장 얇은 보드두께의 MDF가 가장높은 밀도를 나타내었다. 수평밀도분포의 변이는 작은 크기 즉 $120{\times}120\;mm$의 시편에서 큰 차이를 보여 MDF의 보드두께가 수평밀도분포에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 보드두께가 클수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또 보드두께가 적을수록 수평밀도분포의 밀도분포는 컸으나 보드두께가 클수록 밀도범위가 좁게 나타났다. 수평밀도분포의 변이계수(COV)는 보드두께가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 요약하면 MDF 보드두께는 수평밀도분포에 매우 큰 영향을 미치며시편의 크기 또한 상당한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Increases of public attention on healthy environment lead to the regulation of indoor air quality such as Clean Healthy House Construction Standard. This standard covers emission of total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) (e.g., formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene), ventilation, and use of environmentally-friendly products or functional products. Moisture absorption and desorption abilities are a recommended functionality for improving indoor air quality. In this study, moisture absorption and desorption capacities of carbonized board from wood-based panels and other materials were determined by using UNT-HEAT-01 according to ISO 24358:2008. Pine had higher moisture absorption and desorption capacities ($49.0g/m^2$ and $35.3g/m^2$, respectively) than hinoki cypress, cement board, gypsum board, oriented strand board, and medium density fiberboard (MDF). The moisture absorption and desorption capacities differed considerably according to the wood species. After carbonization process at $400^{\circ}C$, the absorption and desorption ability of MDF increased to 38% and 60%, respectively. However, moisture absorption and desorption capacities decreased with increasing carbonization temperature, but they were still higher than original MDF. Therefore, it is suggested that carbonization below $600^{\circ}C$ can improve moisture absorption/desorption capacities.
