Dear All
Some time ago I sent a message to the mailbase about
cellulose/hemicellulose/lignin etc percentage contents in wood. Someone
kindly sent me the table, but does anyone have a reference and/or figures
for similar measurements with flax and hemp fibres.
I found one or two references of figures in the range 50-70% depending on
where the fibres are extracted from for hemicellulose and cellulose.
