Suitability Assessment of Musa Acuminate Peduncles Fiber for Fabrication of Green Composites

In this investigation, a novel fiber from peduncles of the Musa acuminate plant was extracted through the stored water retting technique. Through chemical analysis, composition of different compounds, such as cellulose content (66.43 wt.%), hemicellulose (13.72 wt.%), lignin (16.85 wt.%), and wax (0...
