Thermal degradation of flax and jute fibers

Gassan, Jochen, Bledzki, Andrzej K.·2001·Journal of Applied Polymer Science

Abstract

The thermal degradation of jute and flax fibers under temperatures between 170 and 210°C for a maximum of 120 min was studied in detail. This article will analyze the effects of the thermal exposure on mechanical properties (tenacity) as well as on fiber fine structure (degree of polymerization and degree of crystallinity). It was found that temperatures below 170°C only slightly affects fiber properties, while temperatures above 170°C significantly dropped tenacity and degree of polymerization. Because of chain scissions, a slight increase in degree of crystallinity was observed. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 82: 1417–1422, 2001

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
