Towards more sustainable material formulations: a comparative assessment of PA11-SGW flexural performance versus oil-based composites [PDF]
The replacement of commodity polyolefin, reinforced with glass fiber (GF), by greener alternatives has been a topic of research in recent years. Cellulose fibers have shown, under certain conditions, enough tensile capacities to replace GF, achieving ...

Gelation of cellulose-NaOH solutions in the presence of cellulose fibers
It is well known that when cellulose is dissolved in aqueous NaOH-based solvent, solutions are gelling with increasing time and temperature. The goal of this work was to understand if the presence of non-dissolved cellulose fibers influences gelation behavior of the whole system.

Effect of fibre treatments on interfacial shear strength of hemp fibre reinforced polylactide and unsaturated polyester composites [PDF]
Surface treatment of hemp fibres was investigated as a means of improving interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of hemp fibre reinforced polylactide (PLA) and unsaturated polyester (UPE) composites. Fibres were treated with sodium hydroxide, acetic anhydride,

Cellulose Submicron Fibers [PDF]
In order to manufacture cellulose submicron fibers, electrospinning of cellulose was tried with different solvents. Alpha-cellulose did not dissolve in 6% (w/w) sodium hydroxide/4%urea aqueous solution. Alpha-cellulose solution in 85% phosphoric acid was not spinnable at an applied voltage between 15kV to 25 kV and at a spin length of 4 to 6 inches ...
