Characterization and Utilization of Coconut Fibers of the Caribbean

MRS Proceedings, 2014
ABSTRACTIn many tropical countries coconut (coir) fiber production is a major source of income for rural communities. The Caribbean has an abundance of coconuts but research into utilizing its by-products is limited. Environmentally friendly coir fibers are natural polymers generally discarded as waste material in this region.

The Internal Structure of Coir (Coconut) Fiber

Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1985
The source of commercial coir fiber (actually, a vascular strand) is the massive fibrous husk (3-5 cm thick) surrounding the coconut. This paper reports a SEM study of some aspects of this interesting fiber. The specimens were sputter coated with Au Pd and observed with 4 KV accelerating voltage.A cut cross section of a retted coir fiber is seen in ...
