Potentiality of Utilizing Woven Pineapple Leaf Fibre for Polymer Composites. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 Pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) is one of the natural fibres with the highest tensile strength and cellulose content. This has led to the investigation of the application of short, long, random mats, and unidirectional types as reinforcement agents, but there is limited study on the usage of woven PALF in composites.

Improvement of Physicomechanical Properties of Pineapple Leaf Fiber Reinforced Composite. [PDF]
Int J Biomater, 2018 Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared by compression molding. The fiber content varied from 25% to 45% by weight. Water uptake percentages of the composites containing various wt% of fiber were measured. All the composites demonstrated lower water uptake percentages and maximum of 1.93% for 45 wt% PALF/PP ...

Increasing the nitrate-to-ammonium ratio improved plant growth and nitrogen uptake in pineapple seedlings [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionPrevious studies indicate that the combined supply of both nitrate nitrogen (NO₃⁻) and ammonium nitrogen (NH₄⁺) is more beneficial for pineapple growth than the exclusive supply of either NO₃⁻ or NH₄⁺ alone. However, the optimal ratio of NO₃⁻:
