The focus of this work was to investigate the cellulose acetate (CA)–viscose (CV) interface in an all-cellulosic compound and evaluate feasibility hydrophobic CA-coatings on viscose fibers. Mechanical strengths foil-CA compounds were investigated by recoding stress-to-strain curves. For equivalent strain, composites generate higher stress than pure CA samples. coating CV fibers, fibers pretreat...

In order to ensure an acceptable quality even at the highest spinning or weaving speeds, tensile instruments and testing conditions have to be improved. Therefore, a new high-speed dynamometer and a new method to subject yarns at strain rates similar to those found in current textile operations have been developed. This high-speed dynamometer has then been used to investigate the influence of h...

The macroscopic characters of the whole plant, physical constant values, extractive values, behavior on treatment with different chemical reagents, fluorescence characters under ultra violet light after treatment with different reagents of the powered entire plant of Cleome viscose Linn.(Capparidaceae) were studied to fix some pharmacognostical parameters. Preliminary phytochemical screening on...
