TELLEZ-SANCHEZ, C.; HERRERA-FERREYRA, M. A. y RUTIAGA-QUINONES, J. G.. Anatomical description and physical and mechanical wood properties of Andira inermis (W. Wright) DC. (Leguminosae). Rev. Chapingo ser. cienc. for. ambient [online]. 2009, vol.15, n.1, pp.15-21. ISSN 2007-4018.
The anatomical description and physical and mechanical properties of the Andira inermis (W. Wright) DC. (Leguminosae) wood are presented in this paper. The testing material was obtained from one tree collected in the Arteaga municipality of the Michoacán State. In the anatomical description the IAWA nomenclature was used. The physical and mechanical properties were determined according to D 143-94 ASTM standards. A. inermis wood hat medium bright, attractive grain pattern, interlocked grain, diffuse porous and very thick cell wall. Its basic density is very high and its shrinkage is medium. Static bending SPL, MOR and MOE is high, very high and medium, respectively. Compression parallel to grain SPL is high, and MOR is very high. Compression perpendicular to grain SPL is very high. Janka hardness is very high.
