  2. Hot pressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_pressing

    Hot pressing is a high-pressure, low-strain-rate powder metallurgy process for forming of a powder or powder compact at a temperature high enough to induce sintering and creep processes. [1] This is achieved by the simultaneous application of heat and pressure. Hot pressing is mainly used to fabricate hard and brittle materials.

  3. Particle board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_board

    Particleboard with veneer. Particle board, also known as particleboard or chipboard, is an engineered wood product, belonging to the wood-based panels, manufactured from wood chips and a synthetic, mostly formaldehyde-based resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed under a hot press, batch- or continuous- type, and produced. [1]

  4. Decorative laminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorative_laminate

    Decorative laminate Roll and sheet of decorative laminate. Decorative laminates are laminated products primarily used as furniture surface materials or wall paneling.It can be manufactured as either high- or low-pressure laminate, with the two processes not much different from each other except for the pressure applied in the pressing process.

  5. Laminate panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminate_panel

    Laminate panel is a type of manufactured timber made from thin sheets of substrates or wood veneer. It is similar to the more widely used plywood, except that it has a plastic, protective layer on one or both sides. Laminate panels are used instead of plywood because of their resistance to impact, weather, moisture, shattering in cold ...

  6. Pressed wood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressed_wood

    Once the board is at its desired thickness, the board is placed into a press, where the board is pressed and heated. This process gives pressed wood its strength [2] advantage over other engineered wood types. [3] The boards are placed in a press where the press will press down on the boards with roughly 2.8 megapascals (400 psi) of pressure. [3]

  7. Armstrong World Industries - Wikipedia

    After corkboard, the logical move was to fiberboard, and then to ceiling board. Cork tile and linoleum led to vinyl flooring, then ceramic tile, laminate flooring, and carpeting. In 1917, Armstrong Cork signed with the Batton Company advertising agency, a relationship that continues to this day through their corporate descendants. [10]

  8. Cross-laminated timber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-laminated_timber

    A hydraulic press on the other hand, generates a greater pressure, ranging from 40 to 80 pounds per square inch (280–550 kPa), and applies it to specific faces of the panel. For this reason, panels may need to undergo both vertical and side clamping pressing. [1] Once assembly pressing is complete, the CLT panels undergo quality control ...

  9. Composite repair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_repair

    Laminate structures are assembled so that the fibre orientation provides most of the desired mechanical properties and the matrix largely determines the environmental performance. In sandwich structures thin, high strength skins are separated by, and bonded to, lightweight honeycomb cores; the thicker the core the stiffer the panel with minimal ...
