Comparison of harakeke with hemp fibre as a potential reinforcement in composites
The objective of this study was to characterize the performance of untreated and chemically treated harakeke fibre (a leaf fibre from a plant native to New Zealand) and compare with hemp fibre to assess its use as potential reinforcement in composites. Alkali treatment is amongst the most popular tr...
