[ 1 ] - Gum Tragacanth Fibers Introducing Primitive GT Fibers (RESEARCH NOTE)

In this research, a method for producing gum tragacanth (GT) fibers is presented. Ribbon type GT of Astragalus Gummifer species were obtained from local production lands. The gum was treated with alkali to increase its process ability, and allowed to stand for a period of time to reach the proper viscosity and/or to "ripen". Samples with different ripening times were prepared and their viscosit...
