This study was carried out to determine the mechanical and physical properties of particle boards glued with condensed tannin (Wattle Tannin) powder that was single-molecule phenolic compounds like powdered phenolic resin. Our findings are; 1) It is necessary to spray water on the chip surfaces for effective application of powdered -form tannin resin. It shows that the best and optimum mat moisture increase is 14% of water spray on the surface of chips for developing PB properties. 2) In general, for both liquid and powdered tannin adhesives, their physical and mechanical properties has been proportional to the increase of resin level. But, the most efficient addition ratio is 16% of resin on dry basis. Specially, it is found that the resin level influences on the amount of free formaldehyde emission. The higher the resin level is, the lower the emission is. These phenomena seem to result from the increase of hexamine or formaline in the adhesives used as a hardener, that reduce the free-formaldehyde amount by reaction of tannin of poly-molecule and water. 3) The optimum condition for manufacturing PBs is the condition of hexamine of 5% and formaline of 6% in mechanical and physical properties. Hexamine is superior to formaline in mechanical and physical properties along with the control of the free formaldehyde emission amount. The result of NaOH's addition is insignificant in all experiments of both mechanical and physical properties.

천연접착제인 분말상 탄닌수지를 사용한 파티클보드의 물리·기계적 성질의 개선을 위하여 분말상 탄닌수지와 액상 탄닌수지를 혼합하여 사용한 결과, 30:70 (분말 : 액상)의 혼합비가 최적조건이었으며 분말상 탄닌 수지의 비율이 높으면 물성이 저하되는 현상을 볼 수 있었으며 또한 포름알데히드 방산량이 E₀ 수준의 고내수성 제품을 제조할 수 있었다. 한편 요소수지 및 멜라민수지와 분말상 탄닌 수지와의 혼합방법은 물리·기계적 성질의 개선에 영향을 주지 못했으며, 유리포름알데히드 방산에 대한 scavenger의 역할만을 하였다.
