Vegetal fibers in polymeric composites: a review
(Assoc Brasil Polimeros, 2015-01-01)
The need to develop and commercialize materials containing vegetal fibers has grown in order to reduce environmental impact and reach sustainability. Large amounts of lignocellulosic materials are generated around the world ...
Impact of content and length of curauá fibers on mechanical behavior of extruded cementitious composites: Analysis of variance
(2019-09-01)
The use of composite materials in construction has grown considerably in recent years, such as cementitious matrices and concrete reinforced with fibers. The vegetable fibers have become an alternative due to its abundance, ...
Characterization of a New Lignocellulosic Fiber from Brazil: Imperata brasiliensis (Brazilian Satintail) as an Alternative Source for Nanocellulose Extraction
(2017-01-02)
The chemical, physical and thermal properties of a new lignocellulosic fiber from Brazil (Imperata brasiliensis) were examined by SEM, chemical composition, XRD, FTIR, and TGA. Fibers were analyzed aiming to compare the ...
CHEMICAL MODIFICATION EFFECT on THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES of HIPS/COCONUT FIBER COMPOSITES
(North Carolina State Univ Dept Wood & Paper Sci, 2010-01-01)
Lignocellulosic fibers from green coconut fruit were treated with alkaline solution (NaOH 10% m/v) and then bleached with sodium chlorite (NaClO(2)) and acetic acid (CH(3)COOH). Alkali-treated and bleached fibers were mixed ...
Chemical modification effect on the mechanical properties of hips/ coconut fiber composites
(2010-05-01)
Lignocellulosic fibers from green coconut fruit were treated with alkaline solution (NaOH 10%m/v) and then bleached with sodium chlorite (NaClO2) and acetic acid (CH3COOH). Alkali-treated and bleached fibers were mixed ...
Thermoset matrix reinforced with sisal fibers: Effect of the cure cycle on the properties of the biobased composite
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2009)
Thermoset phenolic composites reinforced with sisal fibers were prepared to optimize the cure step. In the present study, processing parameters such as pressure, temperature, and time interval were varied to control the ...
Comparative analysis of different chlorine-free extraction on oil palm mesocarp fiber
(2020-08-01)
Biobased products are a growing trend in industrial crops, but the natural variation among the plant sources demands the development of efficient pretreatments for standardizing the raw material. This work aims to evaluate ...
Materials prepared from biopolyethylene and curaua fibers: Composites from biomass
(ELSEVIER SCI LTDOXFORD, 2012)
Composites of high-density biopolyethylene (HDBPE) obtained from ethylene derived from sugarcane ethanol and curaua fibers were formed by first mixing in an internal mixer followed by thermopressing. Additionally, ...
Cellulose acetate and short curaua fibers biocomposites prepared by large scale processing: Reinforcing and thermal insulating properties
