Pineapple Leaf Fibers and PALF-Reinforced Polymer Composites

open access: closed, 2011
Pineapple leaf fibers (PALF) have long been known as textile materials in many countries. Despite being mechanically excellent and environmentally sound, PALF are the least-studied natural fibers, especially for reinforcing composites. This article presents a survey of research works carried out on PALF and PALF-reinforced composites.

Effect of chemical modifications on FTIR spectra. II. Physicochemical behavior of pineapple leaf fiber (PALF)

open access: closedJournal of Applied Polymer Science, 1997
This article highlights chemical modifications like alkali treatment, dinitrophenylation, benzoylation, and benzoylation-acetylation carried out on an pineapple agrowaste leaf fiber (PALF). The parent and chemically modified PALF were characterized by FTIR spectra, pH measurement, and detection of nitrogen.

Properties of Pineapple Leaf Fiber (PALF) Reinforced Polypropylene (PP) Composites

Macromolecular Symposia
AbstractPineapple leaf fiber (PALF) is an abundant natural fiber that is produced from agricultural plantations in Malaysia. Typically, after three times the pineapple yield, pineapple leaf waste is burned, which can cause an environmental issue. PALF has the potential to be converted into fiber‐reinforced composites.

Density Weibull Analysis of Pineapple Leaf Fibers (PALF) with Different Diameters

open access: closedMaterials Science Forum, 2016
Societal, economical, technical and environmental advantages are today justifying the replacement of synthetic fibers by natural fibers. However, natural fibers obtained from plants do not present the same dimensional uniformity. In fact, they show large dispersion of values, as compared to synthetic fibers.

The use of pineapple leaf fibers (PALFs) as reinforcements in composites

open access: closed, 2014
Pineapple leaf fibers (PALFs) can be utilized as fabrics for textile materials and in the manufacture of yarns and handicrafts in many countries. The excellent mechanical properties and environmentally sustainable characteristics exhibited by PALFs have triggered the interest of researchers to use the material as a potential reinforcement in structural

IR and X‐ray diffraction studies of raw and chemically treated pineapple leaf fiber (PALF)

open access: closedJournal of Applied Polymer Science, 1991
AbstractIR and X‐ray diffraction studies have been carried out on raw and chemically treated pineapple leaf fiber (PALF). The degree of crystallinity, as found by X‐ray diffraction and the crystallinity index as found by infrared methods, decreases on treatment with NaOH and NaClO2 solutions.

Fabrication, mechanical characterization of pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) reinforced vinylester hybrid composites

open access: closedAIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Natural fibre based composites are under intensive study due to their eco friendly nature and peculiar properties. The advantage of natural fibres is their continuous supply, easy and safe handling, and biodegradable nature. Although natural fibres exhibit admirable physical and mechanical properties, it varies with the plant source, species, geography,
