Thermomechanical properties of the silanized-kenaf/polystyrene composites

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2009
In order to improve the poor interfacial adhesion of the kenaf fiber and polystyrene (PS) in their composite material, the surface of the kenaf fiber was modified using a synthesized polymeric coupling agent to promote adhesion with PS matrix.

Fatigue life estimation of kenaf reinforced composite materials by non-destructive techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this study, fatigue life of natural fiber reinforced composite materials was predicted due to manufacturing defects fatigue damage modes. Kenaf bast fibers were used to fabricate natural fiber composite materials with epoxy as a binding material.

Characteristics of Kenaf Fibers Treated by Alkali [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Society of Clothing and Textiles, 2011
Kenaf fiber can be obtained by decortications of the kenaf plant stem. The properties of the kenaf fiber treated by alkali (NaOH) were investigated by spectrocolorimeter, SEM, X-ray diffractometer, FT-IR and TGA. The kenaf fibers treated by alkali became darker and their Munsell color values changed from Y (yellow) to YR (yellowred) according to an ...
