<p>A method of producing fibreboard, the method comprising the sequential steps of (a) providing an aqueous slurry or suspension of lignin-containing wood fibre material; (b) adding a phenol oxidizing enzyme system to the fibre slurry; (c) forming the fibre slurry into a mat of the wood fibre material; and (d) pressing the formed mat by applying heat and pressure to produce the fibreboard, wherein the enzyme system is added in an effective amount for achieving improved mechanical properties such as water uptake (swelling), tensile strength perpendicular to the surface (IB), modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) of the resulting fibreboard.</p> |
