Effect of Alkali Treatment of Nettle Fibers on Oil Absorbency
Nettle is a cellulosic plant fiber with a reasonably large lumen and they are a cheap, easily renewable source of fibers with the potential for oil absorbency. To the author’s best knowledge, there are no published data available on the oil absorbency behavior of alkali-treated nettle fibers. In thi...
