ABSTRACT:
Particle boards are currently prepared by treating the particles (e.g. wood chips) with a binder comprising an organic polyisocyanate and, optionally, a release agent and then subjecting the treated particles to a molding process involving heat and pressure. The resulting particle board will generally release well from the caul plates of the press after forming. However, it has been found that the ease of release is enhanced, particularly where the wood particles in the board are derived from hardwood, by utilizing a metal selected from magnesium and zinc in the metallic surfaces of the caul plates or platens which come into contact with the particle board during the application of heat and pressure.
