Physicochemical and mechanical properties of different morphological parts of tea tree (melaleuca alternifolia) fibres
Tea tree fibres as underutilised fibres were investigated physically, chemically and mechanically. From this study, it was found that the tea tree leaf (TTL) had the highest density - 0.42 g/cm3, and the highest percentage of water absorption - 69.9%. From the tensile strength, the tea tree trunk...
