Investigation of Physico Chemical Properties and Characterization of New Natural Cellulosic Fibers from the Bark of Ficus Racemosa

The objective of this examination is to characterize the fibers from the bark of Ficus racemosa fibers (FRF). FRF is composed of cellulose (72.36 wt. %), hemicellulose (11.21wt. %), lignin (10.45 wt. %), and has a density of 895 Kg/m3. The Differential thermogravimetry (DTG) shows that the maximum d...
