Properties of Frost-Retted Hemp Fibers for the Reinforcement of Composites

Frost-retted hemp fibers were investigated to assess their suitability for composite applications. Chemical analysis of frost-retted hemp fibers highlighted a high amount of solubles (pectins) at the fibers surface and a low lignin content in the fibers that was attributed to an unfavorable synthesi...
