PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ATHEL WOOD (Tamarix aphylla)

Year 2010, Volume: 11 Issue: 2, 82 - 87, 11.08.2010

Abstract

The aim of this work was to determine the main physical and mechanical properties of athel wood (Tamarix aphylla), one of the least studied non-commercial wood species. Wood samples of Tamarix aphylla were collected from a small tree stand in Molyvos coastal area (Lesvos, Greece) and standard test methods were followed on small green specimens. Athel wood's air- and oven dry densities were determined at 0.73 and 0.66 g/cm3, while maximum tangential shrinkage and swelling were approximately 10.8 and 12.1%, respectively. The volumetric shrinkage and swelling were estimated at 14.0 and 15.5%, respectively. Modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity, compression strength parallel to grain and Janka hardness (perpendicular to grain) values were found to be 88.5 N/mm2, 7533 N/mm2, 40.9 N/mm2 and 33.7 N/mm2, respectively.

ILGIN ODUNUNUN (Tamarix aphylla) FİZİKSEL VE MEKANİK ÖZELLİKLERİ

Year 2010, Volume: 11 Issue: 2, 82 - 87, 11.08.2010

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, üzerinde çok az çalışma yapılmış ve ticareti fazla yapılmayan Ilgın (Tamarix aphylla) odununun fiziksel ve mekanik özelliklerinin belirlenmesidir. Ilgın odun örnekleri, Molyvos bölgesinin (Midilli, Yunanistan) kıyı kesimlerinden toplanmış ve toplanan örneklere standart test metotları uygulanmıştır. Ilgın odununun hava kurusu ve fırın kurusu yoğunlukları sırası ile 0.3 ve 0.6 g/cm3 olarak belirlenmiş, teğet yöndeki en yüksek daralma ve suda şişme oranları ise %10.8 ve 12.1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Hacimsel daralma ve şişme oranları ise sırası ile %14.0 ve 15.5 olarak öngörülmüştür. Kopma ve elaktil modül ile modülü, liflere parallel direnci ve Janka sertlik değeri ise sırası ile 88.5 N/ mm2, 7533 N/ mm2, 40.9 N/ mm2 ve 33.7 N/mm2 bulunmuştur.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Odun, Ilgın, Tamarix aphylla, Mekanik özellikler, yoğunluk, Daralma, Şişme
