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

INFLUENCE OF PECTINOLYTIC ENZYMES ON RETTING EFFECTIVENESS AND RESULTANT FIBER PROPERTIES
BioResources, 2008 Enzymes have the potential to provide an improved method to ret flax for textile fibers. Retting is the separation or loosening of fiber bundles from the cuticularized epidermis and the woody core cells. New commercial pectinase products were evaluated

Tensile deformation of a flax fiber [PDF]
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 ...

Development of novel flax bio-matrix composites for non-structural and structural vehicle applications [PDF]
, 2015 The use of natural fibres (e.g. flax, hemp etc.) instead of synthetic fibres (carbon and glass etc.) as composite reinforcements not only benefits the environment, but also provides economical lightweight products for transports.

Processing of Fiber Flax in Oregon [PDF]
, 1951 Excerpts: Fiber flax is processed in the United States only in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. Flax plantings there have varied from 18,000 acres in 1942 to about 1,000 acres in 1950. The 1942 crop yielded 2,000 tons of line fiber, which is about a third of the quantity imported each year.
