Anatomical Structure of Pineapple Leaf Fiber
2020The use of natural fibers, such as pineapple, sisal, banana, coir, sun hemp, mesta, or jute, in polymer composite materials has expanded fundamentally in recent years. Today, pineapple fiber is enormously popular among the composite research community due to its various advantages including its smoothed and scaled morphology, low thickness, firmness ...

Pineapple Leaf Fibers Coated with Polyacrylamide Hydrogel
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014Pineapple leaf fibers (PALF) have several advantages such as low cost, eco-friendly, and high specific strength. However, the brittleness of PALF limits its application. To overcome this limitation of PALF, it is essential to synergize the advantages of PALF with elastic properties of hydrogel.

Thermal properties of pineapple leaf fiber reinforced composites
Materials Science and Engineering: A, 2003Simultaneous measurment of effective thermal conductivity (λ) and effective thermal diffusivity (κ) of pineapple leaf fiber reinforced phenolformaldehyde (PF) composites have been studied by transient plane source (TPS) technique. The samples of different weight percentage typically (15, 20, 30, 40 and 50%) have been taken.

Analysis of physio-mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fiber
International Journal of Life Science Research Archive, 2022The present research demonstrated that different fiber intimate blends allow the broader use of pineapple leaf fiber for the textile and clothing industries. This fiber is obtained from the leaves of pineapple plants by extraction, carried out to separate the cambium and fiber using a decorticator Machine.

Mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fiber-reinforced polyester composites
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 1997Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) which is rich in cellulose, relatively inexpen- sive, and abundantly available has the potential for polymer reinforcement. The present study investigated the tensile, flexural, and impact behavior of PALF-reinforced polyes- ter composites as a function of fiber loading, fiber length, and fiber surface modification.
