The recent superiority of the composite materials is cautiously focusing on environmental adoption natural fiber composites. major source covered in globe, especially fibers, plant-based, animal-based and mineral-based. Eco friendly based material can save environment recycling possible, as well important criteria. Hence engineers ultimately focused polymer matrix to environment, pollution cont...

Kenaf or Hibiscus cannabinus is an annual herbaceous crop that grows well in temperate regions with high rainfall and abundant solar radiation. This Malvaceae member famously known for its high-quality fibre directly retrieved from dried stem materials useful various industries, mainly paper pulp, bio-composite, textiles manufacturing. With recent discoveries, kenaf can now be regarded as a mul...

Kenaf is a nonwoody fibrous plant, and its fibre can be potentially used as reinforcement in the matrix to produce biocomposite materials. The properties of materials are highly dependent on reinforcing material binder. This study kenaf with different compositions (10, 20, 30 wt.%) lengths (1 cm 3 cm) using casting process. Low viscosity epoxy resin (635 thin resin) 6 poise was matrix. results ...

Kenaf is an important bast fiber crop. In order to diversify the available kenaf simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular markers and generate potentially useful for breeding, we developed expression tag (EST-SSR) based on lead-stressed transcriptome sequencing data spliced unigene sequences. Additionally, distribution of SSRs in potential functions SSR-containing genes were determined. Moreover,...
