Effect of coir fiber content and compatibilizer on the properties of unidirectional coir fiber/polypropylene composites [PDF]
Fibers and Polymers, 2014 The main objective of this research was to study the effect of fiber content variation and stearic acid (SA) treatment on the fundamental properties of unidirectional coir fiber (CF) reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites. Several percentages of filler contents were used (10–40 wt %) in order to gain insights into the effect of filler content on the ...

Characteristics of Microcrystalline Cellulose from Coir Fibers
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020 This work aimed to extract and characterize microcrystalline cellulose from coir fibers. Extraction was achieved in a two-step process in which the coir fibers were treated with sodium hydroxide for 3 h at 100°C followed by bleaching with peracetic acid to remove residual lignin and hemicellulose.

Coir Fiber–Process and Opportunities
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2007 Abstract Coir is a versatile lignocellulosic fiber obtained from coconut trees (Cocos nucifera) and is available in large quantities, in the order of 5 million tons a year globally. The best way to bring the existing coir industry to a higher level is the development of new value-added coir products.
