Influence of Sheep’s Wool Vegetation Mats on the Plant Growth of Perennials

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Vegetation mats for horticulture and landscaping usually consist of coconut fibre and straw. They have hardly any available nutrients and serve only as a carrier material for plant growth. Water capacity is low.

Improvement of water absorption behavior and mechanical properties of woven jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites with waste eggshell filler

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of waste eggshell powder on the water absorption and mechanical properties of jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites. Optimal eggshell filler content (2 wt%) significantly enhances composite performance by reducing water absorption and improving mechanical properties.

RUBBERISED COIR INDUSTRY - AN INTRODUCTION

open access: yesCORD, 1988
The coconut palm is one of the versatile products of nature. Almost all parts of the tree are put to use by man. The uses of coconut kernel, shell, husk, trunk, leaves, sap etc., are well known and are therefore not described here. In this paper only one

Bio‐Based Multilayer Composites Based on Blended Electrospun Fibers and Luffa Cylindrica for Enhanced Low‐Frequency Noise Absorption

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Bio‐based multilayer composites consisting of Luffa Cylindrica and electrospun microfibers exhibit enhanced sound absorption, shifting peak performance towards lower frequencies. The multilayer configuration improves acoustic wave dissipation, providing a tunable and sustainable solution for urban and traffic‐related noise mitigation.
