New renewable and biodegradable fiberboards from a coriander press cake
Résumé
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the thermo-pressing conditions (mold temperature, applied pressure and molding time) on the mechanical properties, the thickness swelling and the water absorption of fiberboards made from a coriander press cake produced in a single-screw extruder. In regard to the mechanical properties of the optimal board and its water-sensitivity, such a fiberboard would be applicable as inter-layer sheets for pallets, for the manufacture of containers or furniture, or in the building trade (floor under-layers, interior partitions or ceiling tiles). Moreover, thermo-pressing not only produces cohesive fiberboards, but also significantly increases the oil extraction efficiency.
