The effect of gum arabic application on the color parameters of five different wood species - ayous, alder,lotofa, magnolia and teak - was investigated. The results were obtained differently. The most significantdecrease in C* value was found in ayousta (37.11%) and the least increase was found in teak (3.50%). Thered-green color component (a*) increased in all samples, with the highest increase being obtained in ayousta(58.25%) and the lowest increase in magnolia (8.01%). It was noted that the lightness (L*) values decreasedin all wood types, the most significant decrease was observed in lotofa (17.07%) and the least decrease wasobserved in magnolia (4.90%). A general increase was determined in the yellow-blue color component (b*)except for teak, where a slight decrease was recorded (0.29%). Differences were also observed in the colortone angle (h°) parameter; a slight increase (1.16%) was obtained in the experimental group samples ofmagnolia wood, while the most significant decrease (13.62%) was found in the experimental group samplesof lotofa wood.
