Insulation Thermal Insulation
Thermal conductivity (k value) = 0.35W/m.K Linear thermal expansion = 0.01W/m.K
Electrical Insulation CBPB is resistant to tracking and does not build up static charges, thus be
used as backing panelling for electrical appliances.
Acoustic Insulation The sound reduction for boards of various thicknesses is as follows:
6mm - 28dB 10mm - 31dB 20mm - 33dB 30mm - 36.5dB 40mm - 38dB
![Page 47: Wood Composites](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a6be5b4af9f86648b45ae/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Machinability working - CBPB can be worked using hard tipped tools in a similar
manner to timber,plywood or chipboard.
sawing - can be sawn with handsaws, jigsaws with suitable blades or power saws with tungstentipped blades.
drilling - use hand drill or high speed power drill
sanding - manual sanding or mechanical sander preferably applied to both sides of board simultaneously.
fixing - drilling of pilot holes for nails and screws is recommended for most board thicknesses.

Applications for Low-Cost Applications for Low-Cost HousingHousing• relative low price of products since wood wool
can be produced from inferior quality wood which is unsuitable for sawmills
• simple technology required to produce boards, etc - see photograph below of plant in the Philippines
• in most countries in the world wood and the components of cement are readily available
• low enough weight to allow handling panels without the use of cranes or heavy machinery
![Page 60: Wood Composites](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061119/546a6be5b4af9f86648b45ae/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Applications for Low-Cost Applications for Low-Cost HousingHousing• highly skilled labourers are not required for board
manufacture or building construction which allows boards to be made and buildings to be constructed locally and cheaply
• the construction process is quite fast and simple
• high insulation value
• easy handling and workability
• important properties such as fire, water, termite and fungi resistance
