Physical and Mechanical Properties of Fast Grown Eucalyptus Wood Originally Planted For Pulp & Paper or for Charcoal Production
Eucalyptus was established in Brazil 101 years ago to provide fuel for trains. Later it was selected, planted and managed, both for charcoal and for pulp and paper. Only around ten years ago this genus began to be employed widely for sawn timber production. Due to the lack of information, studies on the physical and mechanical properties of the fast grown Eucalyptus wood must be carried out to identify genetic material with better performance during processing and in use. It is important to report that these traits were not considered in the original process of selection. Thus, this work aims to present results of several assessments based on these characteristics. Most of the results were performed on clonal material and amongst charcoal and pulp and paper Eucalyptus, it has been possible to identify a variety of characteristics in the wood, some of them suitable for sawn limber utilization.
