Chemically Retted Kenaf Fibers
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

Adhesion Characteristics of Kenaf Fibers [PDF]
This chapter presents adhesion mechanisms in relation to bonding of kenaf fibers. Adhesion mechanisms are dependent on the surface characteristics of various materials. In principle, there are three components for adhesion to occur viz: substrates, adhesive matrices, and interfaces.

Fiber association and network formation in PLA/lignocellulosic fiber composites. [PDF]
PLA composites were prepared in an internal mixer with a lignocellulosic fiber having relatively large aspect ratio. Fiber content changed between 0 and 60 vol% and the homogenized material was compression molded to 1 mm thick plates.
