Cement-bonded wood fiber

Cement-bonded wood fiber is a composite material manufactured throughout the world. It is made from wood (usually waste wood), chipped into a specially graded aggregate that is then mineralized and combined with Portland cement. Although the combination of wood and cement paste has been shown to result in a degradation (hydrolysis) of wood, the mineralization process renders the wood inert and no longer susceptible to degradation.
