Cellulosic Fibers: Role of Matrix Polysaccharides in
Mesoporosity was suggested as a new parameter for G-layer characterization [14]. Gelatinous cell-wall layer is deposited inward to the xylan type secondary wall layers; the degree of S-layer development in fibers with G-layer differs from well pronounced, like in tension wood [15], to barely detectable, as in flax [2].
