Flax fiber surface modifications: Effects on fiber physico mechanical and flax/polypropylene interface properties

Polymer Composites, 2005
AbstractThis study arises on the opportunities of using flax fibers as reinforcement for polypropylene (PP) matrix composites. For this purpose, untreated flax fiber bundles obtained by a retting process have been used. For improving compatibility between flax fiber bundles and PP matrix, fiber surface treatments such as maleic anhydride, maleic ...

Oxidative Delignification of Flax Fiber

Russian Journal of Applied Chemistry, 2003
Oxidative delignification of flax fiber at 98°C was studied. The intermediate material was produced in moderate yield with high degree of delignification. The optimum conditions of the process were determined.

Grafting of nano-TiO2 onto flax fibers and the enhancement of the mechanical properties of the flax fiber and flax fiber/epoxy composite

Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 2015
Abstract In this article, a flax fiber yarn was grafted with nanometer sized TiO2, and the effects on the tensile and bonding properties of the single fibers and unidirectional fiber reinforced epoxy plates were studied. The flax fiber yarn was grafted with nanometer sized TiO2 through immersion in nano-TiO2/KH560 suspensions under sonification.

Utilization of flax fibers for biomedical applications

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2013
AbstractOver the past decades, a large number of animal‐derived materials have been introduced for several biomedical applications. Surprisingly, the use of plant‐based materials has lagged behind. To study the feasibility of plant‐derived biomedical materials, we chose flax (Linum usitatissimum).

Identification of Natural Bamboo Fibers and Flax Fibers

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
In this paper, the method based on the testing of the Fourier transform near infrared (NIR) spectra is proposed to identify natural bamboo fibers and flax fibers. The discrimination models between natural bamboo fibers and flax fibers are established by means of Ward’s algorithm and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis after the first derivative and vector ...
