NBKP and banana fibers Conventionally used NBKP wood pulp alone is accompanied by sound distortion due to lack of bonding strength at the pulp fiber level This distortion component present in reproduced sound has been considered to be an integral element with wood pulp as seen in comments such as reminds listeners of paper Continual study for usability of various types of materials such as carbon...
