The Truth About PARTICLE BOARD...Is It The Worst Material?! (Pros + Cons...Particle Board)
Particle board is an engineered wood product, similar to MDF and OSB. It is made of compressed wood fibers mixed with 10% resin and glue, and pressed into sheets or panels.
MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) is essentially a higher grade panel than particle board, which is an LDF (Low Density Fiberboard).
Particle board is prone to deterioration and fracturing at the edges. It is also highly susceptible to moisture penetration. However, due to its layering, it has a greater surface density than plywood and natural wood products.
Much particle board is sold with veneered faces of a plasticky white laminate known as melamine.
Melamine particle board makes a very good material surface for craft tables.
Raw particle board sheets are also sometimes used as a sacrificial subfloor material in dry work places. However, they are not code worthy, and therefore shouldn't be used as subfloor in a residential home.
