Determination of physical properties of Eucalyptus cloeziana sp. wood in different dimensions

The Eucalyptus belongs to the family Mirtaceae and has about 600 species with several varieties and hybrids, besides having different types of cells that adapt to perform specific functions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical properties of Eucalyptus Cloeziana wood, specifically, apparent density, basic density, moisture content, total volumetric retractability and anisotropy factor. The wood of this species was cut into three different sizes of species according to the current Brazilian standard, the old Brazilian standard and the French standard. The values found were similar to those found in studies of other researchers, which shows a data concordance for the Eucalyptus Cloeziana species.
