Composites of natural rubber with curaua fibers [PDF]

Polímeros
This paper analyzed the thermal and mechanical properties of natural rubber/curaua fiber composite with different weight contents (2.5% to 15%). Alkali treatment was used to modify the surface of curaua fiber and improve interfacial bonding.

Mechanical Properties of Hybrid PVA-Natural Curaua Fiber Composites. [PDF]

Materials (Basel), 2022
This work presents the experimental study of hybrid cement-based composites with polyvinyl alcohol fiber (PVA) and alkali-treated, short, natural curaua fiber. The objective of this research is to develop composites reinforced with PVA and curaua fiber to present strain-hardening behavior with average crack width control.

Dynamic and Ballistic Performance of Graphene Oxide Functionalized Curaua Fiber-Reinforced Epoxy Nanocomposites. [PDF]

Polymers (Basel), 2022
Graphene oxide (GO) functionalized curaua fiber (CF) has been shown to improve the mechanical properties and ballistic performance of epoxy matrix (EM) nanocomposites with 30 vol% fiber. However, the possibility of further improvement in the property and performance of nanocomposites with a greater percentage of GO functionalized CF is still a ...
