Abstract
⺠Chemical treatments alter the contents of fibre constituents. ⺠Fibre constituents such as cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin were separated from the treated fibres. ⺠Chemical and thermal behaviour of fibre constituents were analysed. ⺠Hemicellulose was less thermally stable than the cellulose and lignin. ⺠Hemicellulose was primarily responsible for moisture absorption of the fibre.
