Plant population effects on fiber hemp growth and yield in Southeastern United States
Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Fiber hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) has gained renewed interest in the United States as a bast fiber crop used in textiles, nonwovens, and composite materials. Region‐specific production practices are limited due to the crops relatively recent legal status.

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Natural fiber‐reinforced, natural resin (NFR‐NR)–based biocomposites are a sustainable set of materials developed to offset the ecological and environmental consequences resulting from the use of man‐made composites. The biocomposites are reinforced with the vegetable fibers such as jute, flax, hemp, kenaf, and so on with biodegradable polymeric ...

Normal Pressure Pulping of Jute, Kenaf and Mesta Bast Fibers.
Sen'i Gakkaishi, 1998 To develop a simple pulping technique for small scale papermaking, a combination of ammonium oxalate pretreatment and alkaline hydrogen peroxide treatment at normal pressure was examined for jute, kenaf and mesta bast fibers. The ammonium oxalate pretreatment seems sufficient to remove transition metal ions (Mn, Fe and Cu) and a part of Ca and Mg to ...

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Currently, a massive expanse of wastewater is generated and ejected directly into the environment owing to widespread industrialization, hasty fluctuating technologies, and excess demand of the overgrowing population. This could pollute the ground/surface water, ecosystem, and cause serious damage to public safety/security and ecological balance. Hence,

Physical Structure Characterization of High Viscosity Kenaf Bast Pulps
JAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL, 2005 新しい方法で実験室的に調製した高粘度ケナフ靭皮パルプ試料をFT-IR分光法, X線回折法, ならびにCP/MAS13C NMR分光法で比較分析した。使用した高粘度ケナフ靭皮パルプは3種類の異なる方法で調製したもの (A, B, C) で, 銅エチレンジアミン粘度 (CED) は順に109, 63および102 cPであった。FT-IRスペクトルでは, 基本的には同様な分子鎖構造を示したが, 平均水素結合度, エーテル結合比, 結晶化度指数はCED粘度の順と一致した傾向にあった。X線回折図とCP/MAS 13 C NMRスペクトルでは, B法のパルプで, (110) 面間にA法とC法では認められない残留リグニンの存在が示された。FT-IR, X線, CP/MAS 13 C ...

Effect of fiber extraction methods on some properties of kenaf bast fiber [PDF]
Industrial Crops and Products, 2013 The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of different extraction methods on the fiber morphology, density, chemical composition and tensile strength of kenaf bast fiber. Kena fbast fibers were extracted using different methods (crude, decorticated, water retted, 5% sodium hydroxide retted and 5% benzoate retted) and their ...
