In this study, cross-bonded self-binding and bone glue-bonded particleboards were manufactured from sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) bagasse with different pre-treatments of particles. Six types panels (a composite material made by combining fibers adhesives) without glue. The physical, mechanical, thermal properties the examined according to standards. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy thermogravimetric analysis (TG) performed investigate changes in chemical bonds stability fabricated composites, respectively. It was found that (TC) (T3) non-boiled particles showed higher physical mechanical compared other panels. Non-boiled glue highest properties, i.e., modulus rupture (MOR = 26.22 MPa), elasticity (MOE 4302 tensile strength 8.35 MPa, hardness 1.72 MPa. TC T3 also A new peak at 3331-3334 cm−1 for N-H stretching vibration FTIR represents presence particleboards. Thus, research advances production formaldehyde-free particleboard, introducing cross-bonding technique sustainable
