Cissus quadrangualaris plant yield fibers and all the parts of this plant can be utilized in many applications. Inrecent days, textile industries are widely using plant fibers for numerous applications acquired from lots of resources. Theadvantage of natural fibers is their continuous supply, easy and safe handling, and biodegradable nature. The usage ofenzymes in the textile industry consents the development of eco-friendly technologies in fiber processing and tactics toimprove the final product quality. In the present work, natural cellulosic fibers were extracted from Cissus quadrangualarisplant using an eco-friendly method (amylase enzyme). The physico-chemical, thermal and mechanical properties of Cissusquadrangualaris fibers were reported in this paper. Further, the properties of CQSF ensured that it can play an imperativerole in the textile manufacturing industries.
