Schumach for its Pulping Potential	2015	11	.pdf	application/pdf	3895	159	53	The mean values for fibre characteristics of Gerdenia ternifolia are presented in Table 1 Table 1 shows that Gerdenia ternifolia has a pooled mean value of 1.38 mm for fibre length, though Tree A recorded the highest mean value of 1.50 mm at the stem middle potion and Tree C having the least value of 1.18 mm at the top portion of the tree stem For fibre diameter, the mean value is 27.79 µm, with the highest value of 31.0 µm obtained in Tree B at the base portion of the bole while Tree A recorded the least value of 22.80 µm at the stem top portion. It shows the slenderness of the fibres (slenderness ratio), and measures the tear property of pulp fibres in paper production.	cache/american_scientific_journal-969.pdf	txt/american_scientific_journal-969.txt
