RESUMO
This paper present a study to apply the X-ray densitometry technique in obtaining density profiles, along the thickness of new composites made from eucalyptus fibers and sugarcane bagasse particles. Experimental panels were made in treatments with different percentages of both raw materials and bonded with two urea formaldehyde resin percentages, 13% and 16%, with target density of 750 kg m-3, obtaining density profiles and qualitative variables of maximum, medium and minimum densities. The results indicated that the dosage of resin at 16% promoted greater homogeneity in the profile formats and statistical similarity between the minimum density values in the different treatments, which refers to performance as to the internal bond. The density profiles along the thickness showed variations of the panel frame and provided important quality information, applied to the press cycle setting and indications of its technological performance, expanding the possibilities of raw material parameter diagnosis and the panel manufacturing processes.
