Coconut residue fiber and modified coconut residue fiber on biodegradable composite foam properties
Materials Today: Proceedings, 2021Abstract The objectives of this research focused on the effect of coconut residue fiber (CRF) and modified coconut residue fiber (MCRF) on biodegradable composite foam properties based on cassava starch. Compression molding was used to prepare the composite foam shape. The biodegradable composite foam was crosslinked by 0.5%wt boric acid.

Role of coconut coir fiber in concrete
Materials Today: Proceedings, 2020Abstract Now a days the cost of construction increases along with gradual effect on the environment and it has led the researchers to the acceptance of natural fibers such as coconut fibers for improving the strength in concrete. Coconut fibers that are abundantly accessible at the test site making it relatively applicable as a reinforcing material ...

Coconut‐fiber‐reinforced rubber composites
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 1989AbstractDifferent formulations of rubber with chopped coconut fiber (treated and untreated) as reinforcing agent were prepared. These reinforced systems were vulcanized at 153°C and the properties of the vulcanizates were studied by stress–strain, shore A hardness, and abrasion loss measurements. The bonding between the rubber and fillers were improved

Coconut-fiber-reinforced thermosetting plastics
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 1985Thermosetting plastic composites have been prepared with phenol–formaldehyde resins as well as unsaturated polyesters as binders and coconut hair as fibrous reinforcement. Using resole-type phenol–formaldehyde resins, the effect of coconut fiber pretreatment by NaOH, the precondensation time of the impregnated fibrous press material, the resin–fiber ...

Characterization of Green Coconut Fiber Composites
International Journal of Polymer Analysis and Characterization, 2008Abstract Composites of polypropylene and green coconut fiber were prepared in an extruder with temperatures of 140°C in the first zone and 170°C in the other five zones. The screw speed varied from 60 to 140 rpm. Two fiber granulometries were used, X (0,500–0,250 mm) and Y (0,841–0,500 mm).

PERFORMANCE OF COCONUT FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE
2022Strengthening of concrete is essential to develop its engineering & mechanical attributes; an experimental operation founded on trials to determine the properties of concrete reinforced with coconut fiber had been performed. The study involves the comparative statement; of properties of FRC (fiber reinforced concrete) and conventional concrete ...

On the hygrothermal behavior of coconuts fiber insulators on green roofs
2020 IEEE International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering and 2020 IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Europe (EEEIC / I&CPS Europe), 2020Coconut fibre insulators, represent an insulating material considered as “exotic”, which clashes with the doubts of his thermo-hygrometric behavior, in particular, in the case of covering technology such as green roofs, a technological solution adopted in the case of sustainable buildings or nearly zero energy building.
