Characteristics Analysis of Coir Fiber and Performance Evaluation of Coir Fiberboard

Advanced Materials Research, 2010
SEM observations of coir fiber microstructure have been carried out. Uneven surface characteristics are conducive to the bonding between coir fibers and resin materials. The unique advantages of coir fiber have been verified. Doing orthogonal experiment design for coir fiberboard, the coir fiberboard can meet the mechanical properties of National ...

Analysis of Coir Fiber Porosity

2017
Lignocellulosic natural fibers exhibit high variation in mechanical properties values due to their heterogeneity. Recent studies have shown that the dispersion of these properties depends on the diameter of the fiber. A possible explanation for the tendency of low mechanical properties with large diameter is the high probability of defects into the ...

Analysis of coir fiber acoustical characteristics

Applied Acoustics, 2011
Abstract Coir fiber from coconut husk is an important agricultural waste in Malaysia. Acoustic absorption coefficient of the fiber as a porous material is studied in this paper. Two types of fiber are investigated, fresh from wet market and industrial prepared mixed with binder.

Composites from Coir Fibers

2019
Composites have been the most widely used applications for coir fibers. One of the simplest approaches for manufacturing coir fibers based composites is to use the fibers as reinforcement and epoxy or other synthetic polymers as resins. Completely biodegradable coir-based composites have also been developed using natural polymers such as wheat gluten ...

Role of coconut coir fiber in concrete

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2020
Abstract 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 ...

Mechanical Characterization Of Coir Fiber Reinforced Composite

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2020
Abstract Over a long period of the timeĀ fiber reinforced composite have being used in a variety of applications. Their high specific strength and modulus are the main contributing factor in their increasing demand in the day to day application. Fibers used as reinforcement in this polymer-based composite may be naturally occurring or man-made.

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 ...

Comparative Study on Rheological Properties of Coir Fiber and Coir Powder Modified Bitumen

2019
Rheology is a fundamental interdisciplinary science which deals with the study of the internal response of materials by the application of stresses. Bitumen rheology can be defined as the fundamental measurements associated with the flow and deformation characteristics of bitumen.
