Experimental Study of Fiber Length and Orientation in Injection Molded Natural Fiber/Starch Acetate Composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Composite compounds based on triethyl citrate plasticized starch acetate and hemp and flax fibers were prepared by melt processing. Plasticizer contents from 20 to 35 wt% and fiber contents of 10 and 40 wt% were used.

Miniature Spinning Enzyme-Retted Flax Fibers

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2009
Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) fibers can be blended with other short staple fibers, such as cotton (Gossypium barbadense L. or Gossypium hirsutum L.), processed into a yarn, and then manufactured into a fabric. Enzyme-retting is a new, experimental method that decomposes the pectinaceous and matrix substances to separate cellulose fibers from shives ...

The Effect of Graphene on the Fatigue Response and Failure Mechanism of Composite Materials: A Review

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review investigates the influence of graphene on the fatigue performance of polymer‐based composites, focusing on both unreinforced matrices and fiber‐reinforced composite laminates. Graphene materials, including nanoplatelets, graphene oxide, and hybrid nanostructures, offer exceptional mechanical, electrical, and barrier properties that

Development and validation of a novel approach for quantifying dimensions of the lateral ligaments in human ankle dissections

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Traditional measurement techniques in cadaveric dissection fail to account for the changes in soft tissue length during joint movement. We have developed a new, simple method to obtain more accurate measurements of ligament length and validated using the lateral ankle ligaments group.
