Effect of flax fiber content on polylactic acid (PLA) crystallization in PLA/flax fiber composites

Iranian Polymer Journal, 2017
Crystallization of polylactic acid (PLA) has a profound effect on its thermal stability and mechanical properties. However, almost no crystallization occurs in actual injection molding process due to rapid cooling program. In this paper, flax fiber was employed as nucleator to enhance the crystallization capability of PLA. Effects of flax fiber content

Fiber flax in oregon

Economic Botany, 1949
Russia, Poland and the Baltic countries account for about 90% of the world’s production of fiber flax, and prior to 1940, 90% of the raw fiber used in the United States was imported from Europe. Today domestic production in the Willamette Valley of Oregon represents a $3 million dollar industry.

Investigations of the flax fiber/thermoplastic polyurethane eco‐composites: Influence of isocyanate modification of flax fiber surface

Polymer Composites, 2015
In this study, alkali and isocyanate surface modifications were applied to flax fiber (FF) to improve its adhesion to bio‐based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) matrix. In addition to these treatments, isocyanate treated FF was subjected to curing process.

Flax and Hemp fiber-reinforced particleboard

Industrial Crops and Products, 2015
Abstract The objective of this study was to reinforce particleboard products with natural bast fibers which have high tensile strength and stiffness-to-weight ratios. Three-layered particleboards were manufactured from Wood, Hurd and Shive particle furnish and reinforced in the upper and lower face layers with aligned Flax and Hemp fiber mats ...

Pilot plant for processing flax fiber

Industrial Crops and Products, 2005
Abstract A flax fiber pilot plant is needed to process small samples of flax straw into fibers to facilitate research on retting and fiber properties. Our objective was to develop and test a modular design for a flax processing pilot plant based on a commercial line that was capable of cleaning fiber and seed flax straw from unretted, dew-retted, and

Production of Flax Fibers for Biocomposites

2011
Natural fibers for many and varied industrial uses are a current area of intense interest. Production of these fibers, furthermore, can add to farmer incomes and promote agricultural sustainability. Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), which has been used for thousands of years, is unparalleled in supplying natural fibers for industrial applications as ...

QUALITY OF MODIFIED FLAX FIBERS

2007
When polycarboxil acid affects cellulose, a chemical modification of molecular and also of super molecular fiber structure occurs, making natural fibers modified in such a way that they become interesting for use in new textiles where they can substitute man-made materials on an equal basis. In this paper a chemical modification of flax fabric has been
