Applicational properties of reinforced plywood with nanomaterials and kenaf fiber

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
Kenaf fibers were added as a reinforcement between wood veneers of poplar (Populus deltoides) bonded with urea–formaldehyde (UF) resin to improve the applicational properties of standard three-layered plywood. Additionally, the influence of two different nanomaterials (nanocellulose and nanosilica)-modified UF resins on the performance of plywood was ...

Enhancing Mechanical and Physical Properties of Jute/JUCO/Glass Fiber Hybrid Composites Through TiO2 and CuO Microparticle Reinforcement

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2026.
Symmetrical Jute/JUCO/Glass hybrid epoxy composites were reinforced with TiO2 and CuO microparticles. Incorporating 3 wt.% CuO increased tensile strength by up to 63.7%, while 3 wt.% TiO2 maximized flexural and impact properties alongside superior moisture resistance, demonstrating that these fillers significantly enhance natural fiber biocomposites ...

Biomimetic Growth of Hydroxyapatite on Kenaf Fibers

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
Biomimetic hydroxyapatite (HA) growth on mercerized kenaf fiber (KF) was achieved by immersion in a simulated body fluid (SBF) solution with the addition of a chelating agent. An electron micrograph revealed uniform HA layers on the KF within 14 days of immersion with significant vibrational peaks of HA components.
