Physical and tensile properties of treated/untreated kenaf fiber and pineapple leaf fiber

This paper investigates the effect of alkali treatment on tensile properties of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) fiber and pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) for the development of yarn. Basically, to prepare the biocomposite, this project utilized short kenaf fiber as the main material. The fiber was treated w...
