Physical and flammability properties of kenaf and pineapple leaf fibre hybrid composites
Pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) was hybridized with kenaf fibre in order to achieve superior physical and flammability performance. The mixing effects of kenaf fibre and pineapple leaf fibre in phenolic composites are evaluated at various fibre ratios and investigated various physical properties such as density, void content water absorption, thickness ...

Impact response performance of pineapple leaf fibre (PALF)/carbon reinforced hybrid composite
Abstract The number of fossil fuels is decreasing dramatically, whereas the amount of waste around the world is increasing due to the non-biodegradable petroleum-based product such as plastics. Therefore, impact response performance of pineapple leaf fibre/carbon reinforced hybrid epoxy composite was analysed with different layering ...
