The panels were tested according to EN 310: 1993. The results indicate that mechanical strength and thickness are inversely correlated, with thinner panels exhibiting superior performance. MOR decreased from 59.85 N\/mm\u00b2 to 39.36 N\/mm\u00b2 for PF-bonded plywood, while longitudinal MOE declined from 7096 N\/mm\u00b2 (9 mm) to 4627 N\/mm\u00b2 (21 mm). Although their values were lower (from  6093 N\/mm\u00b2 to 4155 N\/mm\u00b2), the MUF-bonded panels demonstrated comparable trends. Significant differences based on orientation were confirmed by ANOVA analysis (p < 0.01), showing that longitudinal samples significantly recorded higher values than transverse ones, particularly in thinner panels. Thicker panels exhibited less anisotropy due to stress homogenization, but PF adhesives provided greater mechanical stability compared to MUF. \n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5255],"tags":[5297,28,4604,4605,5298],"release_year":[],"ppma_author":[4564,5296,2193],"class_list":["post-5679","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wood-research-volume-70-number-3-2025","tag-eucalyptus-plywood","tag-mechanical-properties","tag-melamine-urea-formaldehyde-2","tag-phenol-formaldehyde-2","tag-sustainable-materials"],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"Maro\u0161 Kov\u00e1\u010d","author_link":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/author\/kovacvupc-sk\/"},"authors":[{"term_id":4564,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"haruna-seidu","display_name":"HARUNA SEIDU","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""},{"term_id":5296,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"laszlo-bejo","display_name":"L\u00c1SZL\u00d3 BEJ\u00d3","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""},{"term_id":2193,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"robert-nemeth","display_name":"R\u00d3BERT N\u00c9METH","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5679","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5679"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5679\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5704,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5679\/revisions\/5704"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5679"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5679"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5679"},{"taxonomy":"release_year","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/release_year?post=5679"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodresearch.sk\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=5679"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
