Description
A large pine tree, Pinus sylvestris, native to Eurasia and imported to North America. The Scotch pine has tough light brown wood, often called red deal. Its lumber is used for millwork and it is an important conifer for timber in Europe.
Synonyms and Related Terms
Pinus sylvestris; pino albar, pino Valsaín (Esp.); pin sylvestre (Fr.); casquinha (Port.); pino silvestre (It.); Scots pine; red pine; red deal; Baltic pine; Scotch fir
Other Properties
Paper fiber type: softwood, hard pine. Using transmitted light microscopy, fibers are identified by the presence of fenestriform pits that occur in doubles and singles across the fiber. Dentate ray tracheids are present. Appearance with Graff "C" stain: varies with pulping and bleaching. Average dimensions of fibers: length 3.1mm, width 35μm. Common pulping method: kraft and sulfite.
