Reclaimed Carbon and Flax Fibre Composites: Manufacturing and Mechanical Properties
The feasibility of using the HiPerDiF (high performance discontinuous fibre) method to manufacture highly aligned discontinuous fibres intermingled hybrid composites with flax and reclaimed carbon fibres (rCF), and the potential benefits of so doing, are

FIBRE FLAX BREEDING FOR HIGH FIBRE QUALITY
The objective of flax breeding at the Upyte Research Station of LIA is to develop new varieties with a high yielding capacity, satisfactory resistance to lodging and diseases, as well of adequate quality to meet the demands of the textile industry. Two high yielding varieties with a good fibre quality ‘Vega 2’ and № 1547-11-7 have been developed at the

Composition of Flax Hypocotyl Fibres
Abstract Fibres in the middle part of the hypocotyl of young flax plantlets are organised in a circle of one hundred cells around the vascular cylinder. Apart from cellulose, their walls, of large thickness (2-5 μm), contain 30 to 50% of non-cellulosic polysaccharides (NCPs).

Hygrothermal and Microstructural Investigation of PLA and PLA-Flax Printed Structures
The aim of this work is to explore the manufacturing of insulation structures using fused filament deposition of biosourced materials. The approach considers printing of Polylactic acid (PLA) and PLA-flax (PF) structures using varied infill density and ...

Adapting Flax Production to Climate Change: Can a Spring Variety Be Grown in Winter?
Along the French-English Channel coast, fibre flax is traditionally cultivated in spring during a short window from March to July. However, increasingly frequent and severe spring droughts, driven by climate change, cast doubt on the sustainability of ...

The microdroplet test is commonly used to determine the apparent interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of fibre-reinforced microcomposites. A deeper analysis of the test outcome can provide meaningful information about the fibre/matrix interface behaviour if

Single‐cell transcriptomics of soybean roots soon after rhizobial inoculation reveals epidermal and cortical cell‐specific programs and gene‐regulatory networks acting in symbiosis establishment. We identify an ethylene‐driven regulatory circuit involving WRKY6.3/6.4 transcription factors targeting select Nod19 genes that promotes infection‐thread ...
