Fig 3. Variability in spectra using Raman Spectroscopy for replicates of Lyocell (CLY) samples at several time intervals.
D0. Visually and morphologically intact fiber not exposed yet to environmental and oceanic conditions; D21. Visually and morphologically well-preserved fiber after 21 days of exposure to oceanic conditions; D28. Well-altered fiber was observed after 28 days of exposure to coastal waters. Please note that the selected spectra had a similar fluorescence background.
