<![CDATA[The result of chemical analyses of 205 wood species has been published in previous reports. The analyses comprised determination of content of cellulose, lignin, pentosan, ash, solubility in alcohol benzene 1:2, hot and cold water and In 1:2 sodium hydroxide. As a continuation of the above work, the result of chemical analyses of 75 wood species is presented in this report.The analyses reveal that cellulose content ranges from 40.58-62.50 percent, lignin from 21.10-35.03 percent, pentosan from 8.90-19.96 percent and ash from 0.08-3.40 percent. The solubility in alcohol benzena 1 : 2 ranges from 0.54-11.90 percent, hot water 0.39-12.95 percent and 1% natriumhidroxide from 0.50-22.27 percent. There are 43 wood species with cellulose content above 45 percent, 8 species with lignin content above 33 percent, and there are respectively 25 and 39 wood species with solubility in alcohol benzena 1 : 2 and hot water above 4 percent.]]>
