Chipboard needs to be coated so that moisture can’t get to the wood fibres; otherwise, they will absorb the water, causing the chipboard to swell. Chipboard is normally covered with a A polymer is a large molecule formed from many identical smaller molecules (monomers). Polymers can be natural or synthetic. Plastics are long chains of polymers. laminate - the polymer might have a pattern on it to look like an expensive hardwood or could be white. Most flat-pack furniture is designed on a computer and then cut and drilled by a A method by a computer to execute a pre-programmed sequence. Machines move via numerical values along X, Y and Z axes.. Chipboard has no grain and can be drilled and cut with ease.
