Elementary kenaf fibre extraction [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Second International Conference on Performance-based and Life-cycle Structural Engineering (PLSE 2015), 2015
Elementary kenaf fibres were separated by the HNO3 treatment and the H2O2/CH3COOH treatment. It wasfound that the HNO3 treatment caused fibre fragmentation causing a decrease in the fibre length and an increasein the fibre defect density. However, the H2O2/CH3COOH treatment was not strong as the HNO3 treatment andthis had much less effect on the fibre ...

Influence of yarn parameters on cotton/kenaf blended yarn characteristics

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2020
Spinning kenaf fibers into yarns is challenging due to the stiffness and lack of cohesiveness of the fibers. Alkali treatment is known to remove hemicellulose, wax, and breaks down lignin, reducing stiffness of kenaf fiber and improving its spinnability.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
