Medium Density Fiber Board (IS: 12406)
Universal Testing & Research Center (Division of Sustainable Stewardship Private Limited), an ISO 17025:2017 certified Laboratory approved by BIS, NABL and QAI. We are provide complete solution of the testing requirement of wood industries. MDF is an engineered wood product made by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibers, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure. Standards like IS 12406 typically outline the requirements and specifications for MDF to ensure quality and performance.
Tests for Medium Density Fibre Board:
- Raw Materials: Specification of the type and quality of wood fibers used, including the size and characteristics of the fibers.
- Adhesive Quality: Requirements for the type and quality of resin binder used in the manufacturing process to ensure proper bonding.
- Density: Specifications for the density of the MDF, which can impact its strength and other mechanical properties.
- Moisture Resistance: Guidelines for the resistance of the MDF to moisture and environmental conditions.
- Formaldehyde Emission: Limits on formaldehyde emission levels to ensure compliance with health and safety standards.
- Thickness Tolerance: Standards may specify permissible variations in the thickness of the MDF.
- Internal Bond Strength: Evaluation of the strength of the bond between fibers within the board.
- Surface Finish: Standards may include requirements for the appearance and finish of the MDF surface.
