The current research is focused on developing and evaluating new composite materials that are reinforced with natural fibers to enhance sustainability and create environmentally friendly composites. The use of both wool and Periploca laevigata Aiton fibers was chosen in the construction of the hybrid composite due to their similar organic composition ...

Mechanical and thermal properties of natural fibre based hybrid composites: a review [PDF]
Environmental issues have motivated researchers to replace synthetic fibres with natural fibres in the fabrication of polymer composites. However, natural fibres demonstrate weak mechanical or thermal properties which limit their different applications ...

Elementary kenaf fibre extraction [PDF]
Elementary kenaf fibres were separated by the HNO3 treatment and the H2O2/CH3COOH treatment. It was found that the HNO3 treatment caused fibre fragmentation causing a decrease in the fibre length and an increase in the fibre defect density.

This work presents an investigation on the quality of parts manufactured using fused deposition modeling (FDM), which is influenced by a large number of different elements. Some of which are based on the materials used in the production of the part, though others are rather pertinent to the process parameters.

Pineapple peel based biocomposites for green packaging [PDF]
In this research, pineapple peel fiber (PAPF) based low density polyethylene (LDPE) biocomposites for green packaging was studied. The PAPF was first being treated with alkali before compounded with LDPE. Then, the mixture was compounded using twin screw

ENHANCED FLEXIBILITY OF POLYLACTIC ACID/EPOXIDIZED PALM OIL/PINEAPPLE FIBER COMPOSITES [PDF]
The concern about our dependency on non-renewable resources and overwhelming environmental issues such as pollution caused by non-degradable packaging materials has prompted researchers to come up with alternatives to solve this problem.
