Abstract: The properties and structure of natural cellulosic fibers were investigated by sonic velocify, visible dichroism and x-ray diffraction methods. The following results were obtained: (1) There is a good agreement between the orientation factor determined from the x-ray diffraction method and the visible dichroism of dyestuffs. (2) A linear relation exists between the sonic velocity (C) and the orientation factor from x-ray diffraction (fx); C=8.54fx-0.72(km/sec)for0.6
