Analysis of Fiber Morphological and Chemical Properties of European Aspen (populus tremula L.) growing naturally in Turkey
Abstract
In this study, chemical analysis and fiber structure of aspen (Populus tremula L.) tree were analyzed. The log of Aspen tree was obtained from Arit chief in Bartin forest management. Ratios of main chemical components of aspen tree, holocellulose, cellulose, lignin and ash content, hot and cold water solubility, % 1 NaOH and alcohol-benzene solubility, respectively. As a result, holocellulose, cellulose, lignin, ash content, the resolution of hot and cold water, %1 NaOH and respectively, alcohol-benzene resolution, %85.7, %58, %17.2, %0.28, %14,9, %5.86 and %19.2, respectively.
In addition, measurements of fiber, fiber length, vessel size, lumen width, double wall thickness, elasticity ratio, Runkel classification rate and rigidity values were felting 1.33 mm, 695.1 μm, 22.6 μm, 17.1 μm, 10.4 μm, % 53.5, 0.86, %58.9 and 20.1 respectively. These results obtained here are by and large parallel to those of previous studies aspen tree species.
