Impact of wet-drying Treatment of Raffia and Okra Fibres on Their Morphological, Physicochemical and Mechanical Properties

Impact of wet-drying Treatment of Raffia and Okra Fibres on Their Morphological, Physicochemical and Mechanical Properties

Hornification is an irreversible effect that occurs on lignocellulosic fibers when they are subjected to drying and re-wetting cycles. This study aimed to evaluate okra and raffia fibers morphological, physico-chemical, and mechanical properties. The fibers were subjected to four and six wet-dry tre...
