Giant Reed (Arundo donax L.) Fiber Extraction and Characterization for Its Use in Polymer Composites

This work describes an extraction method for giant reed fibers from stems and leaves based on chemical soaking and crushing through a rolling mill. Obtained fibers, together with the shredded plant (stems + leaves), are characterized in terms of chemical composition, thermal stability, morphology, a...
