Cement composites reinforced by short curaua fibers [PDF]
Matéria (Rio de Janeiro), 2010 The development of an eco-friendly material that could reduce CO2 emission and that could aggregate value to a natural fiber, setting man at the countryside and raising the income of populations from poor regions is a challenge. Lignocellulosic fibers are cheap and are a readily available reinforcement, requiring only a low degree of industrialization ...

Study of the dynamic fragility of polymer nanocomposites: Correlation with damping
Polymer Composites, Volume 44, Issue 9, Page 5619-5632, September 2023., 2023 The dynamic fragility and activation energy were calculated and analyzed on the basis of the dynamic mechanical data of a series of polymer nanocomposites. A general trend of a decreasing dynamic fragility with increasing Tg was found. No monotonic effect of the nanofiller loading on the fragility was detected. Abstract In this work, an extensive study

Mechanical and thermal properties of recycled polyethylene/surface treated hemp fiber bio‐composites
Polymer Composites, Volume 44, Issue 8, Page 4976-4992, August 2023., 2023 This study presents the production of economic, mechanically, and thermally stable polymer composites via their sustainable and reusable components with an environmentally friendly approach. Abstract Hemp is a good option for polyethylene additives because of its high cellulose and fibrous content. This study aims to modify natural hemp fibers with the
