Strength distribution of elementary flax fibres

Composites Science and Technology, 2005
Abstract Flax fibres, along with a number of other natural fibres, are being considered as an environmentally friendly alternative of synthetic fibres in fibre-reinforced polymer composites. A common feature of natural fibres is a much higher variability of mechanical properties.

Flax fibre–polyester composites

Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 2004
Abstract Composites of an aliphatic polyester (Bionolle) with natural flax fibres are prepared by batch mixing. The effect of processing conditions on fibre length distribution and the dependence of the composite mechanical properties on fibre content are investigated.

Influence of the Physical Structure of Flax Fibres on the Mechanical Properties of Flax Fibre Reinforced Polypropylene Composites

Applied Composite Materials, 2000
This study investigates the influence of the physical structure of flax fibres on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) composites. Due to their composite-like structure, flax fibres have relatively weak lateral bonds which are in particular present in flax fibres that are often used in natural fibre mat reinforced thermoplastics (NMT). These

Thermogravimetric analysis of flax fibres

Thermochimica Acta, 1988
Abstract An increase in the heating rate of thermogravimetric analysis from 5° C min −1 to 150°C min −1 displaced the integral curves towards higher temperature depending on the amount of residual non-cellulosic polysaccharides present along with the fibre cellulose.

The cultivation of fibre flax

Outlook on Agriculture, 1983
Flax is one of the oldest textiles, having been in use for some seven thousand years. It is tough and durable and, as this article shows, its cultivation presents no major difficulties: under favourable conditions the yield per hectare can be twice that of cotton.

Numerical modelling of flax short fibre reinforced and flax fibre fabric reinforced polymer composites

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2016
Abstract The ever-increasing demand of flax short fibre-reinforced and flax fibre fabric-reinforced polymer composites in various engineering applications calls for accurate predictions of their mechanical behaviors. In this study, numerical methods to generate and simulate mechanical properties of flax short fibre-reinforced and flax fibre fabric ...
