Self-bonding characteristics of binderless kenaf core composites
Wood Science and Technology, 2005We investigated optimum self-bonding conditions of kenaf core composites manufactured by steam treatment, and discussed on the roles of cinnamic acids in the self-bonding mechanism. The presence of cinnamic acids in the kenaf core and its composites were analyzed by pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry in the presence of tetramethyl ...

Finely milled kenaf core as a natural plywood binder
Holzforschung, 2007Abstract Application of kenaf core powder as a natural plywood binder has been studied. In the first instance, binderless boards made of kenaf core powder and overlaid sugi (Cryptomeria japonica D. Don) veneers resulted in immediate veneer delamination.

The CFD Simulation of Tray Dryer Design for Kenaf Core Drying
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013Tray dryer is the most extensively use for kenaf core drying because of its simple and economic design. The product is spread out on trays at an acceptable thickness so that the product can be dried uniformly. Most tray dryers use hot air stream where water is vaporized from the product and removed by air stream.

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2019
Abstract Polylactic acid (PLA)/natural rubber (NR)/ kenaf core powder (KF) biocomposite was prepared via melt blending in internal mixer followed by hot pressed. The loading of kenaf was varied at five different loadings (0 phr, 5 phr, 10 phr, 15 phr, 20 phr).

Enzyme enhanced solid-state fermentation of kenaf core fiber for storage and pretreatment
Bioresource Technology, 2007Kenaf is an annual fiber crop adaptable to a wide range of climates and soil types. This study investigated the use of kenaf core fiber as a feedstock for enzyme-enhanced fermentation. Triplicate kenaf core fiber samples were treated with enzymes having cellulase:hemicellulase activity ratios of 0:1, 0.015:1, 0.45:1, and 2.54:1 at a rate of 5010 IU/kg ...

Enhanced enzymatic hydrolysis of kenaf core using irradiation and dilute acid
Radiation Physics and Chemistry, 2017Abstract This study was performed to determine the effect of electron beam dose and enzymatic hydrolysis time for production of sugar such as glucose and xylose. After kenaf core was exposed to an irradiation dose that ranged from 0 to 500 kGy, the irradiated kenaf core was treated with a 3% (v/v) sulfuric acid solution using an autoclave for 5 h at ...

Oil Removal Using Diethyl Ether Extracted and Ground Kenaf Core
Materials Science Forum, 2008Kenaf core was tested for its ability to sorb diesel oil from the pure diesel oil bath and the diesel oil containing water bath after extracting with diethyl ether to remove wax from fiber surface, grinding to disrupt lumen structure and presoaking in water.

Mechanical Properties of Kenaf Core Sandwich Panel Toughened with Modified Epoxy
Advanced Materials Research, 2015Kenaf-core sandwich panels were prepared by hand lay-up method with the optimum characteristics. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of modified epoxy on the mechanical properties of the sandwich panel. Mechanical test such as flexural, drop impact and tensile test were performed to investigate the optimum system of kenaf-core sandwich ...
