Eco-Friendly Extraction and Characterization of Cellulose from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunches (2013, result): “The crystallinity index and the crystallite size of raw fibers were calculated as 43.9% and 31.5 nm, respectively, and for the extracted cellulose, they were 70% and 9.8 nm, respectively, corresponding well with a previously reported value of 69% (Jonoobi et al. 2011).”
Systematic evaluation of amorphous silica production from rice husk ashes (2018, methodology): “The amorphous silica was extracted from the RHAs in accordance with the procedure described by Kalapathy et al. (2002), but with modifications.”
Effect of high residual lignin on the thermal stability of nanofibrils and its enhanced mechanical performance in aqueous environments (2015, background): “Several studies have shown the use of mild alkaline pre-treatment for the partial removal of lignin and hemicellulose from wood fiber (Johar et al. 2012; Ramadevi et al. 2012).”
