Mechanical and Morphological Properties of Cellulosic Fabrics Treated with Microencapsulated Essential Oils
This study focused on the mechanical and morphological properties of lignocellulosic heritage textiles (cotton and hemp) made using eco-friendly salvia and thyme microencapsulated essential oils, characterized by low toxicity for humans and the environment. A morphological evaluation of the tested f...
