Received 22 January 2009.

The class of NPc-lattices is introduced as a quasivariety of commutative residuated lattices, and it is shown that the class of pairs (A,A+) such that A is an NPc-lattice and A+ is its positive cone, is a matrix semantics for Nelson paraconsistent logic.

Keywords: Paraconsistent Nelson's logic; N4-lattices; residuated lattices with involution; twist-structures; constructive logic
