Tensile deformation of a flax fiber
Procedia Engineering, 2009 AbstractIn this paper we investigate the tensile properties of a natural composite material: the flax fiber. The beginning of the stress-strain curve of a flax fiber upon tensile loading appears markedly non-linear. The hypothesis of a progressive alignment of the cellulose microfibrils with the tensile axis provides a quantitative explanation of this ...

Fiber Flax Breeding in China and Europe
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2018 In Western Europe fiber flax breeding was started in the Netherlands in 1816, and pedigree selection was introduced in 1900 in the Netherlands also. Therefore, the commercial breeding of fiber flax started at the end of the 19th century. Flax breeding in
