Abstract: MENDOZA, PATRICK JAMES, VIDALLO, EZEKIEL JAMES C. Development of Particle Board from Kaong shells. Research Study (General Science Curriculum), Science High School. College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, May 2018. Adviser: Dr. Hosea de Leon Matel. This study was conducted to develop a particle board from kaong shells. Specifically. the study aimed to: (1) determine the characteristics of the particle board using different levels of milled kaong shells in terms of density, modulus of rupture, moisture content, screw withdrawal and water absorption; (2) determine which among the different treatments produced the best particle board; (3) determine if there are significant differences between the characteristics of the produced particle board among the different treatments used; and (4) determine the cost of production of the produced particle board. Five kilogram of kaong shells and sawdust with three liters of Woodglue were used in the production of particle board. In forming the particle board, mixtures were poured in a "32cm x 28cm" steel tray with different ratio according to its treatment. These were baked in an oven with 180° C for four hours and air-dried for one week. The particle board produced undergo various tests to determine its characteristics. Treatment 1 with 100g of kaong shells and 100g sawdust gave a better characteristics than the other treatments in terms of density, modulus of rupture, moisture content, screw withdrawal and water absorption and was considered as the best treatment. Moreover, it is cheaper than other commercial particle hoard.
