Abstract:This study was conducted to evaluate the suitability of using hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) as reinforcement in natural fibres obtained from hazelnut shell (F) and poppy straw (H). Raw materials were treated with alkali to enrich the cellulose content by removing lignin and hemicellulose. The nanobiocomposite synthesis was performed with 4% and 8% of hBN. Lignin, cellulose and hemicelluloses contents of biomass were determined. Cellulose content was almost increased 3-fold and 2-fold after pretreatment of haze… Show more
