Abstract
Anatomical and physical properties of kenaf grown in Chuncheon, Korea were investigated using light and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction method. Bast fiber, phloem ray, cortex parenchyma cell and sieve tube member were observed in phloem, and vessel element, fiber and ray in xylem. Solitary and multiple radial pores in xylem existed. The cell types of ray parenchyma in radial section were procumbent, upright and square cells. The length of bast fiber increased with increasing the growth period. The length of wood fiber was 0.74~0.82 mm, but was not significantly different between the growth period and stem height. Relative crystallinity was 53~74% in phloem and 43~58% in xylem. Cellulose crystallinity width was 2.68~3.24 nm in phloem and 2.46~2.95 nm in xylem. The green moisture content and green density increased but basic density decreased with increasing the stem height.
