The properties of the panels like density, thickness swelling, water absorption and moisture content were evaluated using the ASTM D1037; EN 317; and ANSI A208.1 standards regarding particle boards. Good results were obtained with formulations of 100% plastic waste; 70% waste plastics and 30% peach palm waste; and 60% waste plastics and 40% peach palm waste.246-253engCivil constructionnatural fibercompositesfurniturepanelspeach palmpolymersArtigo10.1080/15421406.2012.635973WOS:000302301500020Acesso restrito
