Medium density fiberboard is made of wood fibers combined with a synthetic resin, or bonding agent, and bonded together under heat and pressure. MDF is flat, smooth, uniform, and dense, and used in kitchen cabinets, furniture, and moldings. It is an excellent substitute for solid wood in may interior applications.
A panel product manufactured from wood fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other suitable binder. The panels are manufactured by the application of heat and pressure by a process in which the inter-fiber bond is created primarily by the added binder. The typical density range for MDF is 31-50 lbs/cubic ft.
A type of core material primarily composed of lignocellulosic fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other suitable bonding system and bonded together under heat and pressure.
An engineered wood product made from mechanically refined wood fibers combined with resin, which are bonded together under heat and pressure. Its typical density range is 40 to 50 pounds per cubic foot (640 - 880 kg/m3). The durable homogeneous construction of MDF resists warping, cracking and splitting - offering unparalleled design flexibility where intricate shaping and finishing are required. Some of the more common uses of MDF include furniture, cabinetry, millwork, store fixtures and laminate flooring. As with solid wood, the nature of MDF can vary significantly between manufacturers, based on wood species and production technology.
A panel or core product manufactured from wood fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other bonding system. MDF is manufactured with a minimum density of 31 Lbs. per cubic foot up to 55 Lbs. per cubic foot by the application of heat and pressure by a process in which the fiber bond is substantially created by the addition of adhesive.
The generic name for a panel manufactured from lignocellulosic fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other suitable binder and bonded together under heat and pressure in a hot press by a process in which the added binder creates the entire bond.
A panel or core product manufactured from wood fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other bonding system. MDF is manufactured with a 3 minimum density of 497 kg/m3 (31 lb/cu.ft.) up to 881 kg/m (55 lb/cu.ft.) by the application of beat and pressure by a process in which the fiber bond is substantially created by the added adhesive system.
A special type of tempered hardboard characterized by a very fine, smooth finish. MDF is used in cabinet making.
A panel or core material manufactured from pressure cooked wood fiber, resin and wax. (See MDF image at right.)
A panel or core product manufactured from wood fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other suitable binder adhesive. MDF is manufactured with with a minimum density of 497 kg/m3 (31 LB/cu.ft.) up to 881 kg/m (55lb/cu.ft.) by the application of heat and pressure by a process in which the fiber bond is substantially created by the added binder.
Wood scraps and plant fibers compressed together with a binding material, such as glue and pressed out to form a sheet material which is used in construction as wall sheathing, floor underlayment or in any area that is to be covered with a veneer or finish surface.
