In this study, it is aimed to determine the wood veneer bonding
strength on wood-based boards. Particleboard, fiberboard, and oriented
strandboard have been chosen as a testing material due to their
widespread usage. Radial and tangential cut veneers made of pine,
beech, and oak have been glued on the surface of the boards with some
adhesives such as polyvinyl acetate, ürea-formaldehyde, and contact
glues. A total of 540 testing examples have been tested according to
the conditions of determined in the TS 5339 standard. At the end of
the tests, the highest bonding strength has been determined in the
combination of radial-cut beech veneer, oriented strand- board, and
ürea-formaldehyde glue as
The lowest bonding strength has been
determined in the combination of tangential cut beech veneer,
fiberboard, and contact glue as 
particleboard, medium density of fiberboard, oriented strandboard, polyvinylacetate, ürea-formaldehyde, contact glue, beech, pine, oak veneers, cut direction of veneer, veneer bonding strength.
