The present investigation is to study the use of glass-fiber-reinforced epoxy resin waste as a filler material with the bamboo particle to make single-layer particleboard and to examine the mechanical and physical properties of panels to determine the influences of density and temperature.The reuse of comminuted glass-fiber-reinforced resin with various granularities gathered from printed circuit manufacturing residues, the molding process, and the feasibility of producing particle board were evaluated by considering the effects of mass proportion. As fillers, these residues were converted into single layered Particle board using Urea formaldehyde as a bonding agent. The mechanical properties of the reproduced particle board were examined by considering the effects of mass fraction and glass-fiber distribution. Particle board containing mass fractions of 30%, 10%, and 20% glass-fiber- reinforced resin waste respectively was executede Beyond these percentages, the materials blend became unmanageable and the mixture less amenable to impregnation with fiber.
