Matching Exercises-1.6.2.1

Show Matching-1

Fiberboard & Wood Fibers (Fiberboard is a composite material primarily made from wood fibers.)

Show Matching-2

Binder & Urea-Formaldehyde (UF) (UF is a common type of binder used in fiberboard production.)

Show Matching-3

Modulus of Rupture (MOR) & Bending Strength (MOR is a measure of a material’s resistance to breaking under bending stress.)

Show Matching-4

Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) & Stiffness (MOE quantifies a material’s resistance to deformation under stress (stiffness).)

Show Matching-5

Polylactic Acid (PLA) & Biopolymer (PLA is a biodegradable polymer derived from renewable resources, classifying it as a biopolymer.)

Show Matching-6

Hot-Pressing & Consolidation (Hot-pressing is the process used to consolidate wood fibers and binder, forming the fiberboard.)

Show Matching-7

Thickness Swelling (TS) & Water Absorption (WA) (TS is a dimensional change resulting from WA in fiberboards, reflecting their interaction with moisture.)

Show Matching-8

Surface Water Absorption (SWA) & Contact Angle (SWA and contact angle are related as they both reflect the interaction of water with the fiberboard surface. Higher contact angles typically correlate with lower SWA.)

Show Matching-9

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) & Fiber-Binder Interface (SEM is a technique employed to visualize and analyze the microstructure of the fiber-binder interface in fiberboard.)

Show Matching-10

Polycaprolactone (PCL) & Biodegradable Polyester (PCL is a specific type of biodegradable polyester, offering distinct properties as a binder component in fiberboard.)
