This study was to evaluate the effects of the variation in concentrations of urea used in retting on the properties of kenaf fibres. The experiment was conducted with four varieties of Kenaf plant namely: Cuba-108‚ Tianung-2‚ Ifeken-Di-400 and Ifeken 400. Two kenaf stems of each of the four varieties were tied (bundled) together and soaked in an improvised retting tank containing urea solutions at 1 and 2% concentrations and control (without urea). The properties of retting liquor were assessed

Attempt to produce man-made fibre was first started with Artificial Silk’ at 1855 in England by Swiss chemist named Audemars. The fibrous inner bark of mulberry tree was then chemically modified to produce cellulose. At 1880s‚ sir Joseph Swan an English chemist experimented by forcing the cellulose liquid through fine holes into a coagulating bath. First commercial production of artificial fibre was achieved by French chemist Count Hilaire de chardonnet at 1889 in France. At that time he produced
