   Mr. Dwight A. Eusebio is currently Supervising Science Research Specialist Chief of the Composite Products Section of FPRDI under the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). His field of specialization includes the development of wood and non-wood based composite products (particleboard, fiberboard, flakeboard, etc) bonded with resins and inorganic binders.
   
   He finished MS Agriculture at the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology in Fuchu Shi, Tokyo, Japan from 1986 to 1995 and Doctorate of Science in Agriculture, Major in Wood Science and Technology at the Wood Research Institute, Kyoto University in Uji Shi, Kyoto, Japan from 1992 to 1995 as a MONBUSHO scholar.

   "This will help us introduce the technology to interested investors," says FPRDI researcher Dwight A. Eusebio. The plan is backed by $84,000 grant from the United Nations' Common Fund for Commodities.
   
   Coco coir is made from fibers and pith of coconut husk. The board is manufactured without using any synthetic binder such as the expensive and hazardous urea formaldehyde. Coco coir's high lign-in content converts into natural binder once hot-pressed.
   
   The technology earned the Outstanding Creative Research [Likha] Award, and the Philips Most Promising Invention Award during the National Inventors' Week sponsored by DOST. (EHL)
   
   "We can soon demonstrate the commercial feasibility of manufacturing the cococoir board using the FPRDI particleboard plant which is now being rehabilitated thru the UNCFC grant. We also received support from the DOST's Philippine Council for Industrial Energy Research and Development, which shoulders the project's operating expenses", Dr. Eusebio said.
   
   The technology process to make high-strength and earth-friendly panel boards from coconut husk fiber was developed last year "in experiments we conducted with the Philippine Coconut Authority, Fiber Industries Development Authority, and the A&F", he said.
