Abstract

The objective of this research was to evaluate the characteristic of composite boards made from coir, plastic waste, and urea formaldehyde (UF). The board samples were manufactured at a target density of 0.7 gr/cm3. The weight ratio of waste plastic and coir was 50: 50. The UF adhesive added at 0%, 4%, 8%, 12% and 16% of the total weight of the composite board. The result shows that the characteristic of composite boards improves with UF adhesive added, however, no significant difference was found statistically. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
