54—The Determination of Lignin In Flax Fibre
Journal of the Textile Institute Transactions, 1955The effect of the concentration of sulphuric acid, and of variations in the period and temperature of the digestion, on the determination of lignin In flax fibre has been ascertained. For both wax-free and alkali-extracted samples, a digestion period of 2 hours at 20°C with 20 ml. of sulphuric acid of concentration 71.8 to 72.0 per cent (W/w) (sp.

COTTONISATION OF FLAX FIBRES UNDER VARIABLE CONDITIONS
2004In most cases, flax is processed with the effort to obtain very fine fibres from coarse technical fibres. All the methods for obtaining fine flax fibres from technical ones are based on the same process: the cotonization, which consists of partial or total removal of pectin binding the elementary flax fibre cells into technical fibres.

A solution for fibre flax manufacture in Canada.
1922The manufacturing industries during the last century have benefited by the introduction of labour saving devices and the application of scientific methods to their processes to such an extent that at present their output is limited only by the demand for the.product manufactured. We have one notable exception in the linen industry. [...]

RENEWAL OF FLAX FIBRES PRODUCTION IN CROATIA
2013Lan, koji se ubraja među najstarije kultivirane biljke svijeta, tisućljećima se - uz brojne uspone i padove – koristio za dobivanje vlakana, hrane i lijekova. Svoju renesansu doživio je krajem 20. stoljeća kada se povećava ekološka svijest i odgovornost prema okolini kroz pojačanu zaštitu prirodnih resursa.
