Development And Performance Testing of The Laminated Cacao Pod Husk (Cph) Particle Board With Banana Stem Sheet And Glue As Binder
The study was conducted to utilize common waste products as the main materials in fabricating a laminated composite board. The cacao pod husk and waste paper will be used in fabricating the composite board, and the banana stem will be utilized as lamination to maximize the qualities of the composite board using glue as adhesive. The tensile strength, water-resistant, and fire-resistant of the laminated composite board were measured. The tensile strength of the produced laminated composite board was measured using a spring scale.
