This work aims to evaluate the effect of thermal modification on the physical and mechanical properties of species of wood, from an agroforestry system. The species evaluated were Parapiptadenia rigida (Benth.) Brenan, Peltophorum dubium (Spreng.) Taub., Eucalyptus grandis × Eucalyptus urophylla and Schizolobium parahyba (Vell.) Blake, aged nine. The specimens were submitted to thermal treatments (120, 150, 180 and 210 °C), in addition to the control samples. For the mechanical properties, the modules of elasticity and rupture, tension in the proportional limit and maximum force were evaluated according to ASTM D 143-94. For the physical properties of basic density and shrinkage, the evaluation took place according to NBR 7190. The thermal treatment modified the mechanical properties of the wood in a positive way up to 180 ºC, with the highest values ??being observed for E. grandis × E. urophylla and P. rigida. Likewise, the heat treatment has modified the physical properties of wood retractability in a positive way up to 210 ºC, with the anisotropic coefficient decreasing with increasing temperature. Thus, it is concluded that the thermal modification alters the physical and mechanical properties of the four analyzed species. Furthermore, it is perceived that for the case of mechanical characteristics these changes are positive up to a temperature of 180 ºC, while for the physical ones the best results are found at a temperature of 210 ºC.
