Effect of chemical treatment on physical, mechanical and thermal properties of ladies finger natural fiber
In present research, natural fiber obtained from ladies finger plant was chemically treated separately using alkali (2% NaOH), chromium sulfate (4% Cr2(SO4)3•12(H2O)), and chromium sulfate and sodium bicarbonate (4% Cr2(SO4)3•12(H2O)+NaHCO3). Both raw and chemically treated fibers were subsequently...
