- Abstract
Selected physical and mechanical properties of particleboards with variable shares of nettle Urtica dioica L. lignocellulosic particles. The aim of the research was to confirm the possibility of using woody particles of either young or adult nettle Urtica dioica stems as alternative raw materials in the production of particleboards. As part of the work, particleboards made out of nettle Urtica dioica particles were produced in laboratory conditions and selected physical and mechanical properties of the obtained boards were tested. The results show, that it is possible to manufacture particleboards for the furniture industry using particles of nettle (Urtica dioica L.) meeting the requirements for P2 boards according to EN 312 as long as nettle particle mass content does not exceed 50%.
