Best Answer

Wood is actually a composite material composed of several polymers (e.g. cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin), assorted minerals, fatty acids, resin acids, waxes terpenes, etc. As a composite, wood is biologically analogous to fiberglass epoxy or carbon fiber epoxy synthetic composites, with cellulose providing the fibers and hemicellulose and lignin the binders.
