Bamboo Cellulose Textile Filament “Angustifolia” Floating Root Resin

Abstract:

The purpose of the research was to manufacture bamboo cellulose textile filament “Angustifolia” (BCTF) incorporating anionic resin (IR), and to determine its performance in its properties of recovery to doubling (RTD), elongation (E), resistance (R), to be applied in hydroponic floating root crops. The applied process was developed by extruding and forming textile filament with bamboo cellulose (BC) and resin (AR). The BC was placed in a glass container and combined with AR in a 1:10 ratio respectively by stirring with a rod until a homogeneous solution was obtained. Then, the solution of BC and AR is placed at the end of a manual extruder (EM) polyester syringe (PET) of 1 cm in diameter, 12 cm in length and capacity for 10mL, it is manually compressed while at the other end there is an orifice of 1mm in diameter through which the solution is extruded producing BCTF, then it is dried in the environment for 30 min at a temperature of 29.2 ℃ and relative humidity (RH) 42%. The data provided has a reliability of 95% (p > 0.05) using past 4 statistical software. Concluding that it has a great RTD capacity with a statistical average (139.28°) (CV = 3.22), while the E has a statistical average of stretching (18. 38 mm), (25.15%) in relation to its length (CV = 50.97), opposite case occurs with resistance (N) (1.58 N) (CV = 29.02) decreases N in relation to its titer (T) (g/m) where BCTF samples acquire good flexibility and stretching capacities when mixed with AR.
