Popis: ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the feasibility of using lignin-phenol-formaldehyde resin in the production of Mimosa scabrella Benth (bracatinga) structural particleboard. The boards were produced with nominal specific mass of 0.75 and 0.95 g/cm3, 10% and 12% of phenol-formaldehyde and lignin-phenol-formaldehyde resins, with 10 and 12 min of pressing time. The boards quality was evaluated by means of the following physical-mechanical tests: specific mass, compression ratio, water absorption and thickness swelling after 2 and 24 hours soaking, perpendicular traction, static bending and screw pulling. Positive interactions of specific mass, resin content and pressing time were observed in the properties of the boards produced. The evaluation of the properties results based on the requirements of EN 312 (type P5) standard indicated the feasibility of using lignin-phenol-formaldehyde resin in the production of particleboard of Mimosa scabrellla for structural applications.
