Masonite? If not then it is probably MDF particle board, which seems 
to be more glue than wood chip. My brother uses the mDF to make 
speaker cabinets because it is dimensionaly stable, extremely dense, 
and extremely stiff. And since it is an engineered product, you can 
get it in really thick sheets like 1.5 inches. It does dull your 
cutting tools faster than "normal" wood and you really should use a 
good dust mask when cutting it, a real filter would be better.
