STUDY OF TEXTILE POTENTIAL OF FIBRES EXTRACTED FROM TUNISIAN AGAVE AMERICANA L.
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Agave Americana L. fibres have quite important textile potential. In this paper, we demonstrate this potential by studying the extraction of these fibres from leaves, their physical properties such as fineness, density and their mechanical behaviour in tensile tests. The intrinsic variability of all these properties is also studied, showing natural maturity and ageing of fibres.
