Role of Polysaccharides on Mechanical and Adhesion Properties of Flax Fibres in Flax/PLA Biocomposite

Figure 5

Comparison of stress versus strain curves of raw-, NaOH-, and Enzyme-treated elementary flax fibres under tensile loading. Shaded region corresponds to a threshold stress level bellow which fibres broke before pullout in microbonding test.
