The gap of short supply of wood-based panels which cause by the shortage of wood resource is filled by the use of straw based panels. The adhesive performance is a key factor which restricts the performances of strawboard. This paper summarizes the performance and current status of the use of straw based panels with urea-formaldehyde resin, phenolic resin, isocyanate, melamine resin and rubber adhesive. We also analyze the outstanding problems of these adhesives in the production of strawboard. And against these issues, the use of inorganic adh...
