Plant derived natural fibers have been widely investigated as alternatives to synthetic fibers in reinforcing polymers. Researchers over the years have explored many plant fibers using different extraction processes to study their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. In this context, the present study relates to the extraction, characterization, and optimization of Typha angustata L. stem fibers. For this purpose, desirability functions and response surface methodology were applied to simultaneously optimize the diameter (D), linear density (LD); yield (Y), lignin fraction (L), and tenacity (T) of Typha stem fibers. Typha stems have been subjected to both alkali (NaOH) and enzymatic (pectinex ultra-SPL) treatments. Three levels of process variables including enzyme concentration (10, 15, and 20 ml/L) and treatment duration (10, 15, and 20 days) were used to design the experiments according to the factorial design. Experimental results were examined by analysis of variance and fitted to second order polynomial model using multiple regression analysis. The Derringer's desirability function released that the values of process variables generating optimized diameter, linear density, yield, lignin ratio and tenacity are 20 ml/L and 20 days for concentration of pectinex ultra-SPL enzyme and treatment duration, respectively. Confirmation was performed and high degree of correlation was found between the experimental and statistical values. Moreover, the morphological structure has been investigated by the scanning electron microscope, showing a crenelated structure of ultimate fiber bundles of cellulose composing the Typha fiber. Compared to Typha stem non-treated fibers (TSNTF), Typha stem combined treated fibers (TSCTF), brings to improve mechanical properties. This change in mechanical properties is affected by modifying the fiber structure showing alpha cellulose of (66.86%) and lignin ratio of (10.83%) with a crystallinity index of (58.47%).

“…Another study found that Typha elephantina Roxb. can produce fibers with a linear density of approximately 5 tex for textile applications (Haq et al 2021). Only the midrib of the date palm has been studied as a long textile fiber in the Palmae family, despite the fact that there are more than 2,800 species (Sudiono and Susanto 2021) of palm fiber.…”

Windmill palm fiber (WPF) is an abundant source of cellulose fiber that can be used in textile manufacturing. In this study, acid-alkali palm fiber and acid-alkali-enzyme palm fiber were prepared to create blended yarns. The morphology, chemical composition, physical structural parameters, and tensile properties of the WPF samples and yarns were studied. The results indicated that both the acid-alkali and acid-alkali-enzyme treatments can be used as degumming methods to prepare windmill palm textile-grade long fibers with spinning ability. After chemical treatment, the cellulose content of WPF increased to more than 60%, up from 34%. However, the line densities of the acid-alkali and acid-alkali-enzyme textile-grade long fibers decreased to 5.29 ± 1.00 tex and 4.52 ± 0.82 tex, respectively. For the enzyme-treated fiber, a stratification phenomenon of the fiber cell walls and a decrease in the modulus were observed. The palm/cotton yarn had a high tensile strength and strip uniformity.
