They have rough surfaces and a hollow structure to conduct water and nutrients. During contact angle measurements, the liquid is often absorbed by natural ?bers. As the result, the common drop-on-?ber and tensiometric methods are unsuccessful in measurements of contact angles. In this study, a novel method of contact angle measurements is presented that reduces the ?aws of previous methods. The method relies on calculation of the contact angle from a spherical liquid meniscus of the liquid column formed in between two parallel ?bers separated by a small spacing. The accuracy of the method was con?rmed through advancing water contact angle measurements on synthetic ?ber made of nylon 6,6. Using this novel approach, both advancing and receding water contact angles were measured for commercially available ?bers of hemp (Cannabis sativa), curaua (Ananas erectifolius), ?que (Furcraea andina), jute (Corchorus capsularis), piassava (Attalea funifera), pineapple (Ananas cosmosus), ramie (Boehmeria nivea) and sisal (Agave sisalana). All natural ?bers were found weakly hydrophilic with advancing water contact angles in the range of 40–50°. The receding water c
