A comprehensive study of agricultural waste maize husk as a potential reinforcement in maize fiber/glass fiber hybrid composites

SPE Polymers, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Schematic illustration of the fabrication of hybrid composite and characterization proposed in this study. Abstract This study presents a detailed analysis of hybrid composites fabricated using the hand lay‐up method with unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) reinforced by glass fiber (GF) and varying contents of maize fiber (MF).

Investigation of the Physicochemical, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of a Single Fiber Extracted From Imperata Cylindrica Plant

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study investigated the physical, chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of Imperata cylindrica (IC) fibers extracted using 2 wt%, 4 wt%, and 6 wt% NaOH. Since 6 wt% NaOH yielded complete removal, fibers obtained from this concentration were furthermore treated with 1% concentration of silane before characterization.

Recent Progress on the Physical, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of Expanded Polystyrene Waste–Based Composites

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) waste also known as Styrofoam is a common material found in packaging and insulation applications and presents significant environmental challenges due to its nonbiodegradable nature. To address this issue, researchers have explored EPS waste as a potential polymer matrix for developing composite materials.

The Development And Characterization Of Curaua Fibers/ Glass Fibers Polyester Composites

International Journal of Advance in Scientific Research and Engineering (IJASRE), 2020
The curaua fiber is one of the strongest ligno cellulosic and is being currently considered as reinforcement of polymer composite for industrial application. The present work investigates the properties of polyester matrix composites reinforced with continuous curaua fiber and E glass fiber. The developed composites will be tested for tensile, bending,
