Physical and Mechanical Properties of Alnus Formosana Wood Introduced into Sichuan

Abstract:

The mechanical and physical properties of Alnus formosana wood from Sichuan, China were studied. Air-dry density, oven-dry density, basic density, shrinkage, swelling, parallel-to-grain compressive strength, parallel-to-grain tensile strength, modulus of rupture (MOR),modulus of elasticity (MOE) ,impact toughness were analyzed. Results from this study show that air-dry density, oven-dry density and basic density were respectively 0.52, 0.49 and 0.43g/cm³. The average value of volumetric shrinkage was 7.111% and the average value of volumetric swelling was 7.06%. The average values of modulus of elasticity (MOE) ,modulus of rupture (MOR), parallel-to-grain compressive strength, parallel-to-grain tensile strength and impact toughness were 8102.429 Mpa, 80.429 Mpa, 41.575Mpa, 81.542 Mpa and 47.406 Kj/m² , respectively. This study solved a basic problem about the planting and utilization of Alnus formosana wood in Sichuan, China.
