Preface This thesis is submitted as a partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Danish Ph.D. degree. The study was carried out from September 2001 to April 2005 at the Danish centre for Forest, Landscape and Planning, The Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University (KVL). Part of the experimental research has been carried out at Materials Research Department (AFM), Risø National Laboratory, at the Biosystems Department (BIO), Risø National Laboratory, at the Wood Ultra Structure Research Centre, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and at Department of Chemistry, Technical University of Denmark. It was defended 23 rd September 2005. During the three years of work that has resulted in this thesis, many people have contributed in one way or another. I am very grateful of all of you; but there are some who deserve special thanks. First of all I will thank Dr. Anne Belinda Thomsen for introducing me to the project and for the 8 month I was involved in bioethanol research. I wish to acknowledge all my supervisors for their encouraging support and inspiration and for giving me the freedom to choose the subjects of my interest. Especially, I am thankful for the many fruitful discussions of the applied experimental procedures and the obtained results. Furthermore I express my gratitude to Mrs. Ann-Sofie Hansen, Mr. Henning K. Frederiksen, Mr. Tomas Fernqvist, Mrs. Ingelis Larsen, Dr. Bo Madsen, Engineer Tom L. Andersen, Lecturer Kenny Ståhl and Dr. Geoffrey Daniel. This work was part of the project “High performance hemp fibres and improved fibre networks for composites” supported by the Danish Research Agency of the Ministry of Science. Their support is gratefully acknowledged.

1 Resumé Karakterisering af hampefibre blev udført med fibre fremstillet ved skånsomme metoder for at få en indikation af hvor stærke fibre der kan produceres fra hampeplanten. Sammenligning blev lavet med hampegarn produceret under traditionelle betingelser, hvor skader ikke kan undgås. Den skånsomme defibrering af hampestænglerne blev udført ved nedbrydning af den pektin- og ligninholdige midtlamel omkring fibrene ved kultivering af den muterede svamp Phlebia radiata Cel 26. De fremstillede fibre havde et celluloseindhold på 78 %, hvilket også kan opnås ved enzymbehandling med pektinnedbrydende enzymer efterfulgt af steam explosion behandling. S2-laget i fibrenes cellevæg bestod af 1-4 lag med højt celluloseindhold og lavt ligninindhold. Disse lag bestod endvidere af ca. 100 nm tykke lameller. Mikrofibrilvinklen var 0-10° i hovedparten af S2-laget og 70-90° i S1-laget. Siden mikrofibrilorienteringen næsten var parallel med fiberretningen havde fibrene høj stivhed der kunne blive 94 GPa efter defibreringen. De defibrerede hampefibre var dermed stivere end hampegarn (60 GPa), hvilket kan skyldes snoningsvinklen der introduceres under spindingsprocessen. Hampefibrenes stivhed var også lineært voksende som funktion af celluloseindholdet og cellulosekrystalliniteten og aftagende som funktion af snoningsvinklen eller mikrofibrilvinklen. Krystallinsk cellulose havde en estimeret stivhed på 125 GPa. Defibreringen med P. radiata Cel 26 resulterede i fibre med en styrke beregnet på basis af kompositstyrken a 643 MPa, der er tilsvarende styrken af hampegarnet (677 MPa) selvom skånsomme behandlingsmetoder blev anvendt. Plantefiberstyrken så også ud til at stige lineært med celluloseindholdet og var ikke mærkbart afhængig af defibreringsmetoden. Ren cellulose havde dermed en styrke a 850 MPa hvilket er ca. 10 % af styrken på molekylært niveau. Risø-PhD-11 7
