Density Profile Determination of Wood-based Panels Using X-ray Computer Tomography
The internal structure and density characteristics of Sophora japonica waferboard,Cryptomeria fortunei scrimber,and wheat straw boards were evaluated using X-ray based computer tomography(CT).The results indicated computer tomography was an effective tool to determine the panel density distribution both horizontally and vertically.It was found that the average density variations of waferboard and scrimber board were higher than wheat straw boards.It was also observed that the vertical density profile of waferboard did not show any uniformity while scrimber board and wheat straw board showed the typical W-and U-shape curves,respectively.
