Radiolysis of composite polypropylene/hemp fibers

open access: yesNukleonika
Abstract This paper presents the results of the research on the effects of ionizing radiation on the properties of a composite material consisting of polypropylene (PP) and hemp fibers (HFs). The radiolysis effects were investigated for the composites having HF contents in the amounts of 10, 20, 30, and 40% by ...

Cover crop and termination date effects on wheat forage biomass, nutrient content, and profitability

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Cover crops are being encouraged due to benefits to soil health and ecosystem services, but they could negatively affect subsequent forage production and system profitability in regions with limited water availability. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of cover crop treatment and termination date on wheat (Triticum ...

Acid Sulfite Pulping of Hemp: Effects of Processing Conditions on Lyocell Pulp Quality

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 16, Page 3364-3381, 15 August 2026.
Industrial hemp is emerging as a promising renewable source for next‐generation textile fibers. This study evaluates whether acid sulfite pulping can produce hemp‐based dissolving pulp suitable for lyocell manufacturing. While the process is historically linked to increased cellulose accessibility, it did not achieve the low lignin content and ...
