Fique fibres as a sustainable material for thermoacoustic conditioning
Applied Acoustics, 2020 Abstract Fique is an endemic agave species and extensively harvested in Colombia. Its fibres are commonly used for low-tech applications like sacks and cords fabrication for food packaging and handicrafts in general. This paper discusses the study of fibres and textiles from fique as an alternative natural thermoacoustic material for potential ...

Fique fibers are extracted from Furcraea spp. leaves, with 5% average mass yield, using mechanical decortication. Juice, pulp and tow, the by-products of this process, amount 95% of the leaf weight and are considered waste. We extracted cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) from Fique tow, via ultrasound-assisted TEMPO followed by mechanical disintegration with ...

Correlation between the Density and the Diameter of Fique Fibers
Materials Science Forum, 2016Environmental considerations in addition to technical, economical and societal benefits are contributing to promote the substitution of natural fibers for glass fiber in polymer matrix composites. However, natural fibers are heterogeneous in their dimensions, specially the cross section diameter, which plays an important role in their physical ...

Tensile Properties of Epoxy Matrix Reinforced with Fique Fabric
Materials Science Forum, 2020Composite materials are being extensively studied for ballistic armor. Their main advantage is connected to the possibility of deeply reducing weight and costs by maintaining high performances in terms of strength and security. Epoxy composites are reinforced with natural fibers which are replacing other synthetic reinforcement materials.

Journal of Elastomers & Plastics, 2017
In this work, fique fibers used in Colombia’s footwear industry were characterized, functionalized, and added to a natural rubber/butadiene styrene rubber/polybutadiene (NR/SBR/BR) matrix. The morphological analysis of the fibers revealed a preferential orientation with formation of thin layers.
