POTENTIAL USE OF GRAFT COPOLYMERS OF MERCERIZED FLAX AS FILLER IN POLYSTYRENE COMPOSITE MATERIALS [PDF]

, 2008
Graft copolymerization of binary vinyl monomers onto mercerized flax fiber was carried out for the enhancement of mechanical properties of polystyrene composites. Binary vinyl monomer mixture of AA+AN has been found to show maximum grafting (33.55%) onto

Long Jute Fiber‐Reinforced Polypropylene Composites for Lightweight Automotive Structures

SPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
LFT‐G processing route and the resulting property changes. ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of long jute (LJ) fiber reinforcement on the mechanical, thermal and sound transmission loss (STL) properties of polypropylene (PP)‐based biocomposites. Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) are increasingly used in various industries, including automotive

Environmental effects on the durability and the mechanical performance of flax fiber/bio-epoxy composites

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2019
The growing usage of bio-composite materials in different engineering applications demands a thorough understanding of their performance during their service. Extreme environmental conditions, such as warm, humid, and freezing environments, among others,

Agroecological adaptedness of fiber flax specimens

Plant Biotechnology and Breeding
The most important requirement to be met by promising varieties is adaptability, i. e., the ability to resist environmental factors that reduce productivity and product quality. To create such varieties, a constant search for sources and donors of consistently manifested economically valuable traits is required.

Tensile deformation of a flax fiber

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 ...

Rationale and design of a parallel randomised trial of a plant‐based intensive lifestyle intervention for diabetes remission: The REmission of diabetes using a PlAnt‐based weight loss InteRvention (REPAIR) trial

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 2627-2641, April 2026.
Abstract Aims As type 2 diabetes (T2D) continues to rise globally and remains a major driver of cardiovascular disease, its remission has emerged as a therapeutic target. Current evidence supports bariatric surgery and low‐calorie diets with meal replacements.

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

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 624-643, April 2026.
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.

Fiber Extraction from Dual-Purpose Flax

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2016
ABSTRACTDual-purpose varieties of flax were extracted using traditional water-retting method as well as enzyme, chemicals, and semicellulosic commercial gel to determine their suitability for different end uses. Different retting treatments resulted in significant variation in important characteristics of flax.
