MDF uses a finer particle than particleboard. The result is a board that machines better ( more evenly) and has a nicer finish surface whereas particle board is used more in underlayment situations where the board will be hidden.

Medium-density fibreboard meanings for kid?
Medium-density fiberboard, or MDF, is a manufactured wood product composed of wood fibers that are mixed with resin and wax and pressed into flat panels under high temperature and pressure. It is used much like plywood as a building material. Unlike particleboard, with which it is sometimes confused, MDF cuts well and has a smooth surface that is ideal for painting. It is best to cut MDF outdoors, as it creates a lot of dust. It is also smart to wear a respirator when cutting or sanding MDF. When exposed to moisture, unfinished MDF can swell and lose strength.

What is the difference between medium density fiberboard and high density fiberboard?
The differences between medium density and high density fiberboard (mdf and hdf) do vary slightly between manufactures. These are some general facts. MDF is a product of soft woods that are broken down by a defibrator, added to wax and resin, and formed from heat and pressure. The majority of the wood comes from saw dust. It is moderately resistant to termites and mold. It can be quite moisture sensitive. HDF is made in a similar process as MDF, but is much more dense and made from exploded wood fibers and quite a bit more pressure. HDF is highly resistant to mold and infestation and not nearly as sensitive to moisture as MDF.
Where are the trees going when they are being destroyed?
Some are burned on site, to create fields that can be farmed. Some are trucked out to paper mills, to be turned into paper. Others go to other mills, to be cut into boards, planks and beams. Maybe even turned into Masonite, MDF, Plywood, chipboard, particleboard etc.
