Response Surface Optimization of Corn Husk Fiber Mercerization Using NaOH
Julius Mmelikam Chukwuemeka, Joseph Tagbo Nwabanne & Victor Ifeanyi Ugonabo · Journal of Engineering Research and Reports · 2021
The optimum mercerization parameters for treatment of corn husk using NaOH were analyzed by response surface methodology (RSM). The surface morphology and chemical structures of the raw and NaOH-treated fibers were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffracti...
