Kraft pulp produced from juvenile and mature wood from thirty-two-year-old Corymbia citriodora trees was evaluated. The stem was subdivided into regions of juvenile and mature wood, and then it was transformed into chips. ...

Multipurpose forests are becoming more frequent, but research on wood is still needed to target it for adequate industrial consumption. However, such determination requires a knowledge of the seed provenance and planting ...

Woodecement composites are interesting materials for structural and isolation purposes. Dimensional stability, economic factors and resistance to environmental degradation are features that can be exploited for housing ...

This study aimed, with the aid of analysis of variance (ANOVA), to investigate and quantify the influence of moisture ranging between 12% and over 30% (fiber saturation) on the mechanical properties: strength and modulus ...

Thermomechanical treatments seek to increase the wood density, throught of the temperature and pressure combination, which results in a material with improved physical and mechanical properties. Thus, the study aimed to ...

The objective of this research is to assess the influences of basal canker on wood properties for the kraft pulp production. The material consisted of seeded E. grandis trees classified into 4 levels of basal canker severity ...
