Quality of chemically modified hemp fibers.
Hemp fibers are very interesting natural material for textile and technical applications now. Applying hemp fibers to the apparel sector requires improved quality fibers. In this paper, hemp fibers were modified with sodium hydroxide solutions (5% and 18% w/v), at room and boiling temperature, for different periods of time, and both under tension and slack, in order to partially extract noncell...
متن کاملBiocomposites developed using water-plasticized wheat gluten as matrix and jute fibers as reinforcement
Biocomposites developed from wheat gluten using water without any chemicals as plasticizer and jute fibers as reinforcement have much better flexural and tensile properties than similar polypropylene composites reinforced with jute fibers. Wheat gluten is an inexpensive and abundant co-product derived from renewable resources and is biodegradable but non-thermoplastic. Previous attempts at deve...
متن کاملNew biocomposites based on bioplastic flax fibers and biodegradable polymers.
A new generation of entirely biodegradable and bioactive composites with polylactic acid (PLA) or poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) as the matrix and bioplastic flax fibers as reinforcement were analyzed. Bioplastic fibers contain polyhydroxybutyrate and were obtained from transgenic flax. Biochemical analysis of fibers revealed presence of several antioxidative compounds of hydrophilic (phenolics) and...
متن کاملBio-composites from Canola Oil Based Resin and Hemp Fibers
INTRODUCTION The environmental concerns, including dwindling crude oil resources, high oil prices, pollution, greenhouse CO2 emissions, and toxicity in the environment, married to societal pressures towards sustainable development are currently making countries around the world turn to biomass as a renewable resource for a variety of products: fuels, lubricants, chemicals, polymers, fibers, neu...
متن کاملAcoustic Absorption of Hemp Walls with Ground Granulated Blast Slag
Unwanted sound reflection can create acoustic discomfort and lead to problems of speech comprehensibility. Contemporary building techniques enable highly finished internal walls resulting in sound reflective surfaces. In contrast, sustainable construction materials using natural and vegetal materials, are often more porous and absorptive. Hemp shiv is used as an aggregate and when mixed with li...
