Modeling and Optimization of Sisal Fiber Degradation Treatment by Calcined Bentonite for Cement Composite Materials

Journal of Natural Fibers
The treatment of sisal fiber by pozzolanic materials like kaolin and silica-fume has been explored; however, no study has modeled and optimized the effect of sisal fiber degradation treatment using calcined bentonite.

Influence of Bagasse/Sisal Fibre Stacking Sequence on the Mechanical Characteristics of Hybrid-Epoxy Composites

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020
The current study deals with the mechanical and morphological properties of sisal/bagasse fibers reinforced epoxy composites. The composites were developed by the hand layup process in four different proportions of sisal/bagasse fibers.
