ABSTRACT
Malunggay is known for its power of healing. It can be use for various medical purposes. It contains various vitamins and minerals that help in fighting different infirmaries. Its leaves can be eaten as a dish as well as the pods. But when the pods dried, it’s useless. This study aims to produce a cork board out of Malunggay (Moringa oleifera) pods and seeds and compare it to the commercially made cork board in terms of strength and durability. It is significant to the teachers, office workers, and other people who used board in their jobs. It can be a replacement for expensive boards whereas they used to pin their schedule, projects, proposals and many more. In order to produce Moringa Board, the researchers followed some procedures. The researcher gathered all the materials needed. Dried malunggay pods and seeds and chopped it while the other one was pulverized using mortatr and pestle. After it was chopped and pulverized, the reaserch glued it and placed on the plywood. Let it dried for three days. And after that, the comparison was made. After the data were presented, analyzed, and interpreted, the researchers concluded that Moringa Board is durable and have the same strength as of the commercial made board. The researcher recommended to the people to use Moringa Board as substitute to commercial board for it is durable and much cheaper as compared to commercial made. The researchers also recommend the use of other plant to be made as board.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The researchers would like to extend their greatest gratitude to the following persons and entities that has helped them in the study: To their supportive, loving, and caring families for the prayers, moral and financial support; To their research adviser, Mrs. Florentina M. Panganiban for the effort, guidance and their precious
