Temperature Effect on Oil Sorption and Wettability of Kapok Fiber

Kapok fiber as a natural sorbent with excellent hydrophobic-oleophilic characteristic was studied. The effect of temperature on oil sorption behavior and wettability of kapok fiber powder was quantitatively evaluated by capillary rise method. Results showed that at the packing density of 0.1 g/cm3,...
