Laboratory of Wood Panels
Main activities of the Laboratory for Wood Panels (LAP) of the Institute for Material Technologies include:
Determination of physical and mechanical features of the solid wood panels, plywood panels, chipped wood panels and branches wall panels:
- Panel dimensions (HRN EN 324-1:2003, HRN 324-2:2003)
- Water content (HRN EN 322:2003)
- Density (HRN EN 323:2008)
- Thickness Swelling (HRN EN 317:2000)
- Measure changes due to changes in the humidity (HRN EN 318:2008)
- Cyclic moisture resistance (HRN EN 321:2008)
- Moisture resistance - cooking test (HRN EN 1087-1:1999)
- Flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of flexural strength (HRN EN 310:1999)
- Surface strength (HRN EN 311:2008)
- Compressive strength quality (HRN EN 314:2008)
- Tensile strength perpendicular to the panel surface (HRN EN 319:1999)
Determination of the amount of free formaldehyde in wood-based panel materials:
- The perforator method (HRN EN 120:2000)
- bottle method (HRN EN 717-3:2002)
