Improved Chemical Retting of Kenaf Fibers

Textile Research Journal, 2002
Moldable nonwoven fabrics for automotive applications make up a large market, but they are currently made from synthetic fibers that are not easily biodegraded. Incorpo rating kenaf fibers into automotive nonwovens may enhance their biodegradability, while imparting improved acoustical insulation and reducing vehicle weight (kenaf fiber density is 1.4 ...

Kenaf fiber‐reinforced copolyester biocomposites

Polymer Composites, 2011
AbstractIn this study the morphology and properties of a biodegradable aliphatic–aromatic copolyester mixed with kenaf fiber were investigated. Untreated kenaf fiber, as well as kenaf fiber treated with NaOH, and with NaOH followed by silane coupling agent treatment at various concentrations, were used as fillers in the composites.

Kenaf—fiber-plant rival of jute

Economic Botany, 1947
In India and other parts of the Old World kenaf has long been of value in the manufacture of gunny cloth, cordage, fishing nets, floor matting and rug backing, and since 1941 investigations have been conducted toward its cultivation in the New World.

Flexural Strength of Kenaf Fibers/Epoxy Bio-Composites: Content of Kenaf Fiber, Curing Times and Curing Temperatures

Materials Science Forum
Kenaf fiber possesses the capability for application in bio-composite materials, owing to its appealing mechanical and physical properties. This research aimed to achieve the optimum flexural strength of kenaf fiber/epoxy bio-composites materials with variations in kenaf fiber content, curing time, and curing temperature using a casting process.
