Fiberboard classification

Fiberboards are typically categorized into two main types based on their density: non-compressed and compressed. Non-compressed fiberboards are essentially soft fiberboards with a density lower than 0.4 g/cm³. On the other hand, compressed fiberboards come in two forms: medium-density fiberboards (also known as semi-hardboards, with densities ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 g/cm³) and hardboards (with densities exceeding 0.8 g/cm³). Depending on how they’re formed, fiberboards can also be classified as wet fiberboards, dry fiberboards, or oriented strand boards. Additionally, there are different post-processing methods that lead to variations like standard fiberboards and oil-treated ones. Soft fiberboards are lightweight, feature a high void ratio, and excel in thermal insulation and sound absorption, making them ideal for use as interior coverings in public buildings. With special treatment, these boards can be made even more porous, offering excellent adsorption capabilities that can help purify the air.

Medium-density fiberboards boast a uniform structure, moderate density, and strength, along with excellent workability. They’re available in a wide range of thicknesses and find applications across various fields, including furniture production and TV casings. Hardboards, which vary in thickness from 3 to 8 mm, are known for their high strength. For instance, 3 to 4 mm thick hardboards can replace 9 to 12 mm sawn timber in certain applications. These boards are commonly used in construction, shipbuilding, and vehicle manufacturing.

In recent years, the demand for fiberboards has grown significantly due to their versatility and affordability. As environmental awareness increases, industries are exploring ways to make these materials more sustainable. For example, researchers are experimenting with using recycled fibers to produce eco-friendly fiberboards that maintain the same level of quality and performance. This shift not only benefits the environment but also opens up new opportunities for innovation within the industry. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, such as ensuring consistent quality and meeting the growing expectations of consumers who want both performance and sustainability.
