“…The applications of okra fibers in textile industries have a few downsides such as sensitivity to wear, poor fastness to rub as well as color, and a higher tendency to crease. Furthermore, previous studies demonstrated that common bleaching or alkalization chemical treatments failed to enhance the fiber's mechanical properties significantly for their probable use as fillers in composite materials [ [20] , [21] , [22] ]. This advocates that the usage of okra bast fibers as the raw material of nanocellulose can be a practical substitute for engaging them as technical fibers in textile products.…”
