Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of manufacturing a wood-based board. The method includes applying at least one first fibre mat including a first mix comprising lignocellulosic particles and a binder on a carrier, applying a second fibre mat including a second mix including cellulosic particles and a binder on said at least one first fibre mat, and pressing said at least one first fibre mat into a base layer and the second fibre mat into a surface layer simultaneously, thereby forming a wood-based board. Also, to such a wood-based board.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A wood-based board, comprising a lower base layer comprising lignocellulosic particles and a binder, an upper base layer comprising lignocellulosic particles and a binder, a surface layer comprising cellulosic particles and a binder, wherein the upper base layer is arranged between the lower base layer and the surface layer, wherein the particle size of the lignocellulosic particles in the lower base layer correspond to the particle size of the cellulosic particles in the surface layer, and wherein the particle size of the lignocellulosic particles in the lower base layer differ from the particle size of the lignocellulosic particles in the upper base layer. 2. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the lignocellulosic particles in the lower base layer, and the cellulosic particles in the surface layer, have a length of less than 10 mm, a width between 1-2 mm, and a thickness between 0.1-0.2 mm. 3. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the particle size of the lignocellulosic particles in the upper base layer, exceeds the particle size of the lignocellulosic particles in the lower baser layer and the particle size of the cellulosic particles in the surface layer. 4. The wood-based board according to claim 3 , wherein the lignocellulosic particles in the upper base layer have a length between 12-20 mm, a width of about 4 mm, and a thickness between 0.2-0.3 mm. 5. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the wood-based board is a high density fibre or medium density fibre. 6. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the wood-based board is a particle board or an oriented strand board. 7. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the binder is a thermosetting binder. 8. The wood-based board according to claim 1 , wherein the binder in the lower base layer is the same as the binder in the surface layer.
