• Influence of the degree of retting of flax fibers on the tensile properties of single fibers and short fiber/polypropylene composites (2013, result): “This latter value is consistent with the work of Hill et al. 2009 who report a water content of 20% at 95% RH for dew-retted fibers.”
• Long term immersion in natural seawater of Flax/PLA biocomposite (2014, methodology): “Some authors (Hill et al., 2009; Stamboulis et al., 2001) underline the influence of micro capillarities or lumen into the water diffusion.”
• Re-Emerging Field of Lignocellulosic Fiber – Polymer Composites and Ionizing Radiation Technology in their Formulation (2016, background): “Due to the presence of large numbers of hydroxyl groups in the structure of cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin, all natural fibers are considered hydrophilic and they absorb moisture easily, up to 30 wt% at 95% relative humidity.(75) However, only hydroxyl groups in an amorphous state are accessi”
