Alkali Treatment Effect on Physicochemical and Tensile Properties of Date Palm Rachis Fibers

This work aims to optimize the physicochemical and tensile properties of vascular fibers extracted from a local date palm rachis in Algeria. This fiber has a very specific composition and architecture and is different from the remaining fibers obtained from the six possible parts of the tree. For th...
