What are the properties of chipboard wood?

A chipboard is built by wood pieces glued and compressed together. There are three types of chipboards - normal density, high density, medium density. Normal density chipboards are fairly soft, high density chipboards are solid and hard, and medium density chipboards are in between.

The advantages of a chipboard are that they are cheaper than other manufactured boards, as they have a smooth texture and do not require much tooling. Also, their wood fibers do not run uniformly down the length of wood, so chipboards don't splinter easily.

However, the disadvantage is that when waterlogged, the wood fibers of chipboards swell, giving the piece of wood a bloated, bumpy texture.

This is all I know about chipboard, I hope you understood what I said and thank you if you commented.
