The physical and chemical properties are important factors that influence the workability of a material. The main objective of the study is to determine the physical andchemical properties of Kelempayan (Neolamarckia cadamba) with diameter at breastheight ranging between 35cm to 41cm. three Kelempayan trees were cut into three height portion (bottom, middle and top). Samples for physical properties were taken from each height portion and along the radial direction of the stem (near pith, middle and near bark). Samples for chemical determination were taken from the bottom, middle and top portion of the trees. The highest specific gravity of Kelempayan was found at the bottomportion, followed by middle and top portion. Along the radial direction, it was showed that the specific gravity was highest at the near bark, followed by middle and near pith. Percentage of moisture content increased from bottom to top portion. Tree portion was not affected the cold water and hot water solubles, alkali solubility, alcohol toluene solubles, ash content and lignin content.

MNK Publication was founded in 2012 to upholder revolutionary ideas that would advance the research and practice of business and management. Today, we comply with to advance fresh thinking in latest scientific fields where we think we can make a real difference and growth now also including medical and social care, education,management and engineering.
We offers several opportunities for partnership and tie-up with individual, corporate and organizational level. We are working on the open access platform. Editors, authors, readers, librarians and conference organizer can work together. We are giving open opportunities to all. Our team is always willing to work and collaborate to promote open access publication.
Our Journals provide one of the strongest International open access platform for research communities. Our conference proceeding services provide conference organizers a privileged platform for publishing extended conference papers as journal publications. It is deliberated to disseminate scientific research and to establish long term International collaborations and partnerships with academic communities and conference organizers.
