It’s true that there are other North American species with higher values, such as black ironwood or Texas ebony, but these species only occur at the very southernmost tips of the United States, with their natural distributions being centered in much hotter climates—hardly what I would consider...
When logs arrive at saw mills they are usually stacked, and in many cases it is difficult to tell the species of a specific log. It is known that different types of wood species have different commercial values and thus there is often an advantage for the saw mills to sort out different ...
Specific gravity is the ratio of a wood’s density to water (with water being 1.00). Two values are provided: basic SG (oven-dry weight & green volume) and SG at 12% MC (weight & volume at 12% moisture content). Click on the link “Specific Gravity” for more details.0.47, 0.56 ...
In fact, density is a measure of the relative amount of solid cell walls, and it increases as the proportion of thick cells increases. Wood density varies greatly with species, for example, the relative densities (the density of the wood divided by that of the solid cell wall) is about ...

oven-dry, an average, or some other moisture content below fiber saturation point can also be used. The amount of heartwood or sapwood in the sample will also affect the measured density, and there can be around a 10% variation in density within different samples of the same species of ...
Present in high concentrations in the heartwood of Larix species, water-soluble arabinogalactans affect the density, moisture content and processing properties of larch wood. The aim of this study was to chart arabinogalactan concentration (AC) and to define the relations between arabinogalactans, and...
Some wood species have antimicrobial properties, making them a better choice over inert surfaces in certain circumstances. However, the organic and porous nature of wood raises questions regarding the use of this material in hygienically important places. Therefore, it is reasonable to investigate the...
