Physical and mechanical properties were evaluated on cross-laminated panels (plywood) fabricated with three plantation species (Cordia alliodora, Gmelina arborea and Vochysia ferruginea) from tropical climates in Costa Rica. The panels were glued with urea-formaldehyde resin modified with nanoclay at four concentrations (0,75; 1,00; 1,50 and 2,00 %) and unmodified resin. It was determined that ...

The unprecedented increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration has attracted global research attention on the potential role of tree plantations climate change mitigation. There is an urgent need to estimate above-ground biomass (AGB) and carbon stock forest plantations. This particularly essential for Sierra Leone, where data are presently lacking. study estimated accumulation Tectona grandis Lin...
