Abstract
- Wood characterization studies allow the optimization in different timber segments, especially wood processing and utilization. This study determined the anatomical, chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of Cordia glabrata (black laurel wood) to increase knowledge about the potential of underutilized species. The wood has high lignin content, long fibers and thin-to-thick fiber walls. It is classified as a high specific gravity wood and has medium dimensional shrinkage. This species also has medium values of compression parallel to grain and modulus of rupture, high values of shear stress, and low values of splitting. C. glabrata wood may be used in different ways in Brazilian timber sector, especially as decorative veneer, wood flooring, and products that require natural durability and regular mechanical strength.
