Characterization of Thermal Properties of Pig Hair Fiber

Characterization of Thermal Properties of Pig Hair Fiber

Hair fiber is a key by-product of humane slaughter of pigs with considerable economic value. In the present study, we investigated the thermal properties of pig hair fiber using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The DSC curve showed a broad endotherm (arou...
