The main objective of this work is to provide a better understanding of the effect of the degree (duration) of retting of Stipa Tenacissima stems to control the quality of the lignocellulosic fibers obtained. Once harvested and cleaned of impurities, the stems are immersed in a water bath to trigger their degradation for various periods (14,26,30,45,60 and 90 days). After each targeted period, the stems are brushed manually using a metal brush, washed with distilled water, and steamed at 70°C for 6 hours. A series of analyses is carried out on each series of fibers obtained. Firstly, the densities, crystallinity indices, and chemical characterization of the fibers at each degree of retting are determined and analyzed.
