In this work, to better understand the bonding process of plastic plywood panels, the effects
of recycled low-density polyethylene (rLDPE) film of three thicknesses (50, 100, and 150 µm) …

This study aimed to develop a novel wood composite with an asymmetric structure by
surface densification technology. A series of single-surface densified wood specimens were …

In this work, the effects of wood species and thickness of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)
film on the properties of environmentally-friendly plywood were studied. Rotary-cut veneers …

In this study the properties of plywood manufactured from densified and non-densified
veneer sheets and alternate layers of such veneers with and without densification using low …
