Tensile strength of single continuous fiber extracted from mengkuang leaves
The focus of this paper is to obtain a continuous cellulose fiber (CCF) from mengkuang leaves of the pandanus genus using chemical extraction process and to measure its tensile properties. The higher the concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and the longer soaking times employed during the alkali...

The highest tensile strength of 520 MPa was measured for single CCF treated with optimum extraction parameters of 2 NaOH for 60 minutes. Amount of cellulose content of the extracted fiber showed an inverse relationship with the fiber�s tensile strength.
