Effect of Steam Pressure on Chemical and Structural Properties of Kenaf Fibers during Steam Explosion Process
The chemical and structural properties of kenaf fibers that were treated at different steam pressures during the steam explosion process were investigated. With increased steam pressure, a higher percentage of cellulose and acid-insoluble lignin and a lower content of hemicellulose and pectin were o...
