DEF

Particle board produced by forcing the particle/resin mix between metal dies arranged to correspond with desired board thickness and width. Characterized by particles lying predominantly at right angles to the surface.

OBS

Where platen pressing restricts the board thickness to a size commensurate with the maximum curing of the resin, the extrusion method permits much thicker material to be produced. [The] general use of overlay materials such as wood veneers, laminated plastic, asbestos, etc., increases the bending strength adequately for most purposes.

CONT

Les panneaux extrudés. [Ceux-ci] sont très différents [des panneaux pressés à plat] dès la conformation, car les particules encollées sont disposées perpendiculairement aux faces, pressées latéralement à chaud et moulées sur des batteries de tubes, d'où extrusion. [Afin] d'éviter tout délitage en surface, [les panneaux] reçoivent aux deux faces du placage ou du panneau de fibre dur.
