Characterization of Physico-chemical, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of Ethiopian Sisal Fibers

The objective of this paper was to examine the effectiveness of extraction methods (retting, chemical, and scraping) on physico-chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of sisal (Agave sisalana) fibers. Thermal analysis (TGA), FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, XRD, and mechanical strength tests were used...
