Abstract
An increased interest for bio-based adhesives for wood-based panels for building purposes has been arising. This type of adhesives could be a good alternative for petroleum based synthetic adhesives as bio-based adhesives can contribute for healthier indoor environments and, simultaneously, present lower embodied energy. For the previous reasons a bibliographic review was conducted, on the use of bio-based adhesives for the production of wood-based building panels. Some examples of the adhesives, the type of applications and the characterization of the resulting products are presented and compared, bearing in mind contributing for a future increase of research in this area.
