Particleboard Surface Optimization for High-Quality Laminating with Decor Paper by Coskun Kursun, Saadettin Murat Onat, Orhan Kelleci, Suheyla Esin Koksal

“…The study examined how the PB's surface (SL) and core (CL) layer ratio and sanding tolerance affect the PB surface laminating condition. The optimal manufacturing conditions were determined among different combinations of PB density (520 or 560 kg/m3), SL/CL ratio, and sanding thickness using the multi-criteria decision-making method (MCDM). …”
