Peat substrates are well known to become hydrophobic during desiccation, thus degrading their water retention properties. Synthetic wetting agents commonly incorporated limit the risk of hydrophobicity, but companies searching for more sustainable alternatives. To that end, effect wood fiber addition in peat-based mixes was measured using contact angles and hydration curves. The study carried o...

Abstract In this research, the work was carried out to create and analyze mathematical models of steady technological processes in cotton cleaning, obtain analytical expressions for time fiber processing turning raw materials into finished products. addition, unstable cleaning were created analyzed. Detailed information is provided on technology performing these works, devices used, their opera...

The article discusses the results of research on obtaining cellulose fiber from sunflower husks. A complete technological scheme plant raw materials processing is presented. studies have proved possibility husk. average weighted length was 0.495 mm, width 30.8 microns. It has been revealed that 59,1 % total weight obtained can be attributed to conditioned having bougoyage-forming properties.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of retting method on molecular weight different portion Agave atroverance fiber (top, middle and bottom) extracted by techniques. The raw fibers from plant were retted biological chemical (degumming) methods. In both stagnant boil water utilized in method, fibres treated with 5% NaOH. is not purely cellulosic fiber. Percentage composition also...

vide a promising method of streamlining plant breeding programs (Kohel et al., 2001; Lawson et al., 1997; Mohan Cotton fiber is a basic raw material in the textile industry. All et al., 1997). In 1999-2000, we used a G. anomalum the changes in spinning technology require unique and often greater Wawra ex Wawra & Peyritch introgression line 7235, cotton fiber quality, especially strength, for pr...

Polyester has been used as a prosthetic socket base. It is well documented that the raw material of base should have exhibited good mechanical properties. Prosthetic device connects an artificial limb with amputee part. In this work, seven laminated composites were prepared using vacuum technique from polyester resin and reinforced Jute, Carbon, Glass, Perlon fibers. The objective study to manu...

The low performance of insulation panels has received great attention from many researchers and engineers to improve their properties as it become a limiting factor that minimize usage specifically building material. Recently, there been an increase in interest the development composite made natural waste fiber. Due abundance fiber generated by agricultural industry, them suitable be utilized r...

This study aimed to develop an extrusion and pultrusion system for producing carbon fiber-filled thermoplastic pellets. The extruder delivers a plastic melt impregnation die in sufficient volume is pulled out along with the fibers. fibers pass sideways stretched condition through spreader pins attached pool, which can then be wetted optimally. wetting effect was also improved by immersing fiber...

This research aims to develop solid waste produced by oil palm plantation processing in the form of mesocarp fiber. Utilization which is usually only as boiler fuel a Palm Oil Mill. fiber reduce waste, has large heating value, and selling value. In process making briquettes, raw materials are provided, drying, charcoal (carbonization), filtering, forming 100 gr with 150 ml, 200 300 ml water sol...
