Crystallization Kinetics Study of Impact Polypropylene Copolymer with Kenaf as Nucleating Agent and Reinforcement

open access: yesInternational Journal of Technology, 2019
Impact Polypropylene Copolymer (IPC) is an material which combines properties of isotactic Polypropylene (iPP) and its own high impact toughness. However, the crystallization kinetics might be lower than iPP, which may affect the manufacturing cycles.

Study of the kenaf fibres spinnability: Influence of the percentage of kenaf cotton mixture on the yarn properties

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2023
This paper presents the results of the first kenaf spinning attempt in Tunisia. Indeed, kenaf fibers are rigid and lack of cohesion that makes their spinning difficult and a challenge. So, this paper describes the possibility of spinning different blends

Long Jute Fiber‐Reinforced Polypropylene Composites for Lightweight Automotive Structures

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
LFT‐G processing route and the resulting property changes. ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of long jute (LJ) fiber reinforcement on the mechanical, thermal and sound transmission loss (STL) properties of polypropylene (PP)‐based biocomposites. Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) are increasingly used in various industries, including automotive

Chemically Retted Kenaf Fibers

open access: yesSen'i Gakkaishi, 2005
Alkali-retting was applied to kenaf bast ribbons and the mechanical properties and the structure of the retted fibers were investigated. In order to produce the fibers with preferable surface smoothness, the retting should be made at the NaOH concentration higher than 4 %. The tensile properties, however, showed a maximum at the NaOH concentration of 1
