Refining Hemp Fibers for Papermaking

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2005
Abstract Hemp, an annual plant that grows well in the temperate climate, is an alternative fiber source. While there are data on its disk refining, there is little available about its behavior in other pulping equipment. This paper focuses on a series of tests conducted with the Szego Mill™ SM 440 equipped with four plastic rollers to determine its ...

Intrusive growth of sclerenchyma fibers [PDF]

, 2010
Intrusive growth is a type of cell elongation when the rate of its longitudinal growth is higher than that of surrounding cells; therefore, these cells intrude between the neighboring cells penetrating the middle lamella.
