Furniture Plywood and film face plywood.
Plywoodis a material manufactured from thin layers or "plies" ofwood veneerthat are glued together with adjacent layers having theirwood grainrotated up to 90 degrees to one another. It is anengineered woodfrom the family of manufactured boards which includesmedium-density fibreboard(MDF) andparticle board(chipboard).
All plywoods bind resin and wood fibre sheets (cellulosecells are long, strong and thin) to form acomposite material. This alternation of the grain is calledand has several important benefits: it reduces the tendency of wood to split when nailed in at the edges; it reduces expansion and shrinkage, providing improved dimensional stability; and it makes the strength of the panel consistent across all directions. There is usually an odd number of plies, so that the sheet is balanced—this reduces warping. Because plywood is bonded with grains running against one another and with an odd number of composite parts, it has highstiffnessperpendicular to the grain direction of the surface ply.
Smaller, thinner, and lower-quality plywoods may only have their plies (layers) arranged at right angles to each other. Some better-quality plywood products will by design have five plies in steps of 45 degrees (0, 45, 90, 135, and 180 degrees), giving strength in multiple axes.
