Pineapple leaf fibers as a reinforcement of biocomposites - an overview
Based on 87 references, a literature review was presented on PLA reinforced with pineapple leaf fibers (PALF). The properties of PALF were compared with those of other natural fibers. Mechanical properties of PLA composites and factors influencing them, such as filler content, adhesion at the interface between polymer fiber and matrix, as well as fiber

Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) waste as an alternative fiber in making concrete [PDF]
Abstract Indonesia is the 9th largest pineapple producer in the world with a production of 1.39 million tons per year. this makes the pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) waste available abundantly in Indonesia. Palf waste has not been widely used in Indonesia.

Extraction and Physico-Chemical Characterization of Pineapple Crown Leaf Fibers (PCLF)
Apart from the widely discussed pineapple leaf fibers, normally referred to as PALF, fibers from other parts of the plant also exist, particularly those in the fruit crown, which are known as pineapple crown leaf fibers (PCLF).

Natural fibers have become an important issue in the development of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite to resolve the current ecological and environmental problems. Among the many types of natural fibers that are available, pineapple leaf fiber (PLF) was selected as the natural fiber used in this study due to comparatively better mechanical ...

Using pineapple leaf fiber as a sustainable future textile [PDF]
The textiles of the future are environmentally friendly textiles that are non-biodegradable. These textiles can be produced from natural plant fibers. Pineapple, as a bush fruit plant, has spiny and fibrous leaves. These fiber characteristics can be used
