Basics

Any form of wood composite, which uses cellulose, or larger wood particles and an adhesive (along with other agents if desired) to make a new product
Has consistent properties due to this (natural variation / "grain" is removed)
Main (relevant) ones are:
- Low-Density Fiberboard (also known as chipboard)
  - Oriented Strand Board (a similar concept using thinner shavings)
- Medium-Density Fiberboard
- High-Density Fiberboard
- Masonite
Also there are more paperlike materials that can technically be used as structual, or in Sandwich Panels
Paperboard
- Containerboard (specific type used for Corrugated Fiberboard )
Main benefit is using paper recycling, wood chips, and other waste to make useful materials
Need to look into using rayon as the fiber source (would allow for "upgrading" or chopped up lesser quality fibers, into long continous, high quality fibers)
Also need to look into using biologically sourced Binding Agents (thinking lignin, that one bacterial adhesive from that water bacteria (a "superadhesive"), or something else from a bioreactor/digester)
