Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for decortication of fibrous plant stalks, involving first flattening the plant stalk, splitting the two substantially planar stalk sides one from the other; then bending each planar stalk such that the flat stalk piece with the hurd is on the outside of the bend and fibrous bast on the inside of the bend; separating the segments such that the bast begins to pull away from the hurd that spans the gap between the bent segments; peeling the bast from the broken hurd. The resultant bast fiber ribbon is valuable to textile and composite manufacturing industries while the leftover hurd is suitable for a wide range of uses.
