Research on the Relationship between Strength and Chemical Composition of Hemp Fiber

The paper starts with the fiber strength which is one of the most important factors that could influence the fiber spinnability. By discussing the relationship between fiber strength and its four chemical compositions and analyzing the relevance between them with the method of grey correlation, this research come to a conclusion that the content of cellulose influence most on the fiber strength, and the second is lignin. Then set up four grey models between the fiber strength and pectin, hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin, and carry on error analysis at last. This paper makes a contribution to provide the theoretical basis to the research and development of the hemp fiber.
