Carbonized Hemp Fiber for Use in Composites

open access: yesMaterials
This study investigates the use of carbonized hemp fiber (CHF) as a reinforcement for phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (PRF)-based fiber composites. The hemp fiber was carbonized slowly up to 1000 °C under N2 with a yield of 18%. Compression-molded composites were prepared with CHF and then compared to hemp (HF) and wood fiber (WF) at 0 to 50% loading ...

Refining Hemp Fibers for Papermaking

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

“Effects of High‐Intensity Ultrasound on the Structural, Technofunctional, and Allergenic Properties of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Protein Isolates: A Review”

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing global demand for sustainable, nutritionally balanced protein sources has intensified interest in plant‐derived proteins, particularly those derived from oilseeds such as groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). However, although groundnut protein isolates (GPIs) have high nutritional quality, they exhibit limitations in technofunctional ...
