Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9501468A1] Sclerenchyma fibres, in particular flax, are mechanically processed to form a fibre band and the fibers are oriented in a substantially parallel direction. Ligneous components, fats, pectins and other impurities are removed from the fibres of the fibre band by chemically processing and/or digesting the fibre band, and the thus processed fibre band is dried and cut into shorter sections. In order to form fibre bundles, these sections are at least partially ripped or opened. The fibre bundles are carded at a regulated humidity content of at least 10 % by weight and are assembled into a fine fibre band.
