Lauan large trees, there are red meranti, white meranti, yellow meranti. Lauan wood traits: a shiny wood, no special smell and taste, texture staggered, coarse structure, light weight evenly. White Meranti, evergreen tree, trunk high and straight, coarse wood structure, texture staggered straight or beveled for easy drying and processing, and the nails, paint, glue and other properties are good. Physical properties: material is relatively soft, easy to crack, strength and toughness moderate, moderate seismic performance, anti-corrosive medium steam bending properties moderate, for the construction of furniture, plywood flooring, outdoor flooring, cabinets and other widely used. Red meranti wood structure texture same applies white lauan, Radial section beautiful patterns, but the drying and processing difficult. Physical properties: hard material, high strength and toughness, good seismic performance, anti-corrosive medium steam bending properties moderate, high-end home for home, interior flooring, cabinets and other widely used, can be used as a substitute for mahogany. Meanwhile lauan wood chips used for edible fungi (such as Pleurotus) medium. Trees: evergreen tree, up to 60m, diameter at breast height of about 2.0m, often with the root plate. The class of about 70 species, often based on dark red and light red color into two categories, Distribution: distributed in various regions of Southeast Asia. Mainly imported from Indonesia and Malaysia, a large quantity. Cross section: a little obvious difference between heartwood and sapwood, heartwood reddish brown to brick red. Sapwood yellowish white, wide 3-4cm, growth ring is not obvious. Bark: thick 1.0-2.0cm, soft quality, easy to peel strip block. Skin dark red-brown, with fine cracks, small flake off, endothelial reddish brown; bast fibers developed, easily separated into filamentous hemp, wood table linen filaments often residual endothelium. Material properties: a gloss, texture staggered; the structure of coarse, medium to heavy weight; medium to high intensity, narrow dry, easily processed, planing surface smooth, bonding, good paint and nails performance, slightly resistant, dry slightly Discovery, slightly warping, air-dry density 0.56-0.86g / cm3.
