RESUMO

The study about the quality of the wood of Pinus hybrids in Brazil is still recent. On the other hand, some data indicate that the material can be considered promising from the point of view silvicultural. This study aimed to evaluate the potential use of wood hybrid Pinus elliottii var. elliottii x Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis for the production of oriented strand boards (OSB). To conduct the study, 10 logs (2.5 m long) were used, from 05 trees of Pinus elliottii var. elliottii x Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis (PECH) and 05 trees of Pinus taeda L. (PT). The experiment consisted of eight treatments arranged in a factorial way, where the effects of 02 pressing cycles and 04 mixing ratios of wood particles of PECH and PT were analyzed. From the panels produced, samples were obtained to conduct physical tests (moisture content, bulk density, water absorption and thickness swelling) and mechanical (modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and internal bonding), tests according to ASTM D 1037 (2006) and DIN 52362 (1982) standards. Through the analysis of test results it was possible to conclude: Increasing the proportion of particles of PECH wood in the OSB manufacture experimental result in reduced trend in the values of density and most of the mechanical properties (MOR parallel and MOE parallel and perpendicular) of the panels. The dimensional stability was negatively affected by changing the pressing cycle and use of PECH in different proportions, resulting in increase trend of the values of water absorption and thickness swelling. Despite the trends, the OSB manufactured with particles of PECH wood in the proportions 50% and 75% mixed with particles of PT (treatments T4 and T3, conventional cycle), were the ones with the greatest potential for the use of hybrid wood, as they meet the minimum requirements specified by the standard CSA (1993) for all mechanical properties.
