Özet
This study focuses on composite cardboard panels, determining their mechanical properties. The panels were manufactured of a minced waste-paper-based composite material. First, four types of mixture were prepared using minced-material composite cardboards with different ratios of polyethylene (PE). Second, the mixtures were compressed and heated in a mold, and then a composite cardboard panel (CCP), 7-mm thick, was produced. In the third stage, tensile, three-point-bending, nail-pulling and water-absorption tests were applied to specimens of different CCPs. Mechanical tests were conducted using a tensile testing machine in accordance with ASTM 1037. In this study, the mechanical behaviors of the CCPs associated with the added PE were investigated. Observations showed that the presence of PE enhanced the mechanical strength of the CCPs and resulted in an increase in the nail-pulling-load and water-absorption resistance. The investigation was extended to conventional wooden panels (oriented strand board and fiberboard), which were exposed to the same tests. The experimental data demonstrated that the strength of the new product was higher than that of the conventional wooden panels. The results suggest that CCPs can be used as an alternative to wooden panels.
