• Chemical composition, crystallinity, and thermal degradation of bleached and unbleached kenaf bast (Hibiscus cannabinus) pulp and nanofibers (2009, background): “Kenaf consists of two separate parts known as bast and core, of which the bast fibers have been found to possess attractive mechanical properties rendering them susceptible to be utilized as reinforcements in polymer composites as an alternative to glass fibers (Zampaloni et al. 2007; Ochi 2008; Xue”
• KENAF FIBRES AS REINFORCEMENT FOR POLYMERIC COMPOSITES: A REVIEW (2009, methodology): “This shows that fiber content and fiber length have positive effects on impact strength of biocomposites (Liu et al. 2007) and that the role of fiber bridging effect is dominant in determining the impact strength of fiber reinforced composites.”
• Investigation of the effect of surface modifications on the mechanical properties of basalt fibre reinforced polymer composites (2012, background): “[23] also suggested the compression moulding neither damages nor orients the fibres during processing, which preserves the isotropic properties of the composites and reduces the changes in the physical properties.”
• Kenaf fiber reinforced composites: A review (2011, methodology): “[65] the heat deflection temperature of kenaf/soy based plastic biocomposites, showed a significant increase of approximately 36 C, due to the processing method, where the modulus at room temperature is independent of the processing method.”
