Standard Test Methods for Density Determination of Flax Fiber

Importancia y uso:

5.1 Fiber density is useful in the evaluation of new materials at the research and development level and is one of the material properties normally given in fiber specifications.

5.2 Fiber density can be used to determine fiber strength and modulus of a single fiber or bundle of fibers. These properties are based on load or modulus slope over an effective area. Fiber density, when used with the lineal mass of the specimen, can calculate an approximate, total effective area for the specimen.

5.3 In composite applications, fiber density is used as constituent property when determining reinforcement volume and void volume based on reinforcement mass and laminate density.
