Is MDF or solid wood particle board better?

 There are many kinds of furniture panels, and people who look at it are dazzled. So, which of the common panels is MDF or solid wood particle board? Let's get to know it now.

1. The advantages and disadvantages of medium density fiberboard

Medium-density fiberboard is commonly known as density board. It is a man-made board made of wood fiber or other plant fibers and applied with adhesive. According to its density, it can be divided into high-density fiberboard, medium-density fiberboard and low-density fiberboard. Among them, the nominal density of medium-density fiberboard is in the range of 650KG/square meter-800KG/square meter, and the environmental protection level can reach E1.

advantage:

1. The internal organizational structure is uniform, the performance is stable, and the physical index does not change much under different environments, so it is not easy to deform.

2. The surface is smooth and delicate, which is convenient for finishing and saving paint, and the bonding strength is high, which is convenient for pasting other patterns.

3. Appropriate hardness and density, easy to drill and reform in the process of processing and decoration.

4. Good heat insulation performance, not easy to aging, and long use time.

5. Environmental protection: non-toxic, odorless, non-radiation, good air permeability, low formaldehyde content.

shortcoming:

1. The moisture absorption and water absorption performance, the thickness expansion rate is low, the waterproof performance is not high, and it is easier to swell and deform in a humid environment.

2. There are extremely high requirements for processing accuracy and craftsmanship. The nail-holding force is poor and it is not easy to fix with nails.

Second, the advantages and disadvantages of solid wood particle board

Solid wood particle board is a kind of particle board, which is made of wood or other lignocellulosic materials. It uses fine wood fibers on both sides with long wood fibers in the middle. After applying an adhesive, it is glued under heat and pressure. The man-made board is a board produced by the process of particle board. The environmental protection level can reach E1 level.

advantage:

1. The solid wood particle board has good nail-holding power, and can be used for round nails and screws. The processing performance is significantly better than that of MDF.

2. The solid wood particle board has the essence of natural wood, and the content of adhesive is generally less than 5%, which is environmentally friendly.

3. The solid wood particle board has good stability and high strength, and it is not easy to bend when hanging heavy clothes.

shortcoming:

The flatness of solid wood particle board is worse than that of MDF, and it is more difficult to make curvature and shape.

Is MDF or solid wood particle board better? In summary, we can see that both MDF and solid wood particle board have their own advantages and disadvantages, and you can choose according to your own situation.
