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 straw-board.This paper summarizes the performance and current status of the use of straw based panels with urea-formalde-hyde 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 adhesive,biological adhesives and other new adhesive in strawboard are introduced.Finally,we point out the direction for the traditional, new organic adhesive,inorganic adhesive and biological adhesive.It can provide a reference for the further research of adhesives for strawboard.
