The Role of Cold Atmospheric Plasma in Surface Modification and Adhesion Behavior of Polypropylene/Flax Biocomposites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effects of plasma surface treatment on adhesive bonding of PP/flax biocomposites. ABSTRACT The emphasis on environmental sustainability has accelerated the adoption of biocomposites as alternatives to synthetic composites. However, their low surface energy may limit adhesion in bonding applications.

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

Productivity and Tensile Endurance Determination of Hemp Fiber

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2013
The yield of hemp dry matter in Latvia's agro-climatic conditions depending on the variety accounted for an average of 7.4 - 12.4 t ha-1. Dependence on the version being subject to inspection, the yield of dry matter for variety 'Futura' was 11.0 to 12.4 t ha-1, 'Bialobrzeskie' - 9.5 to 10.7 t ha-1, but for 'Tygra' - 7.4 to8.7 t ha-1, and the total ...
