Application of Electro-Technologies in Processing of Flax Fiber [PDF]
Flax fibers used for various applications are obtained from flax stems. Retting followed by drying and mechanical separation leads to the production of fibers. This review article discusses the application of electro-technologies in the production of bast fibers from the flax stem.

Monte Carlo method applied to the mechanical dating of the Turin Shroud [PDF]
Alternative dating methods to radiocarbon have been recently developed to study the Turin Shroud (TS), the linen sheet that according to the tradition enveloped the dead body of Jesus Christ; among them, a mechanical one is based on the study of five ...

The renaissance of flax fibers
Once upon a time all materials were naturally sourced. Now that natural fibers have lost a lot of their traditional market shares to synthetic fibers, they are gearing up to conquer new markets: yarns and fabrics are being tailored to the reinforced plastics industry. Flax is a promising natural fiber. It is relatively stiff and strong. And because it

A Universal Toughening and Energy‐Dissipating Strategy for Impact‐Resistant 3D‐Printed Composites
A universal toughening and energy dissipation strategy inspired by B─O bonds, which can significantly enhance the mechanical properties of composites, enables 3D‐printed smart impact‐resistant structures. Abstract 3D‐printed polymer‐based composites are promising for various engineering applications due to high strength‐to‐weight ratios and design ...

Influence of Stem Diameter on Fiber Diameter and the Mechanical Properties of Technical Flax Fibers from Linseed Flax [PDF]
The continued search for sustainable and eco-friendly materials has led to the integration of bio-fibers, such as flax fiber, as reinforcement in composite materials; however, a wide variation in their diameters and mechanical properties poses a considerable challenge for their incorporation in load bearing and structural bio-composite materials.
