High-performance Reactive Magnesium Cement Incorporating Hollow Natural Fiber and Silica Sand [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2022 Global warming caused by CO2 emissions makes reactive magnesium cement (RMC) increasingly attractive due to its ability to sequester CO2, however, the diffusion of CO2 in RMC is severely limited by the dense hydrated magnesium carbonates (HMCs) formed on

Influence of contents of chemical compositions on the mechanical property of sisal fibers and sisal fibers reinforced PLA composites [PDF]
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2018 The influence rule of the content ratio of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin on the tensile strength of sisal fibers (SFs) and the interfacial strength of SFs and poly lactic acid (PLA) matrix were investigated. Study showed that the microstructure and mechanic property of SFs were changed by alkali treatment. The proper contents ratio of cellulose,

Manufacturing Of Robust Natural Fiber Preforms Utilizing Bacterial Cellulose as Binder [PDF]
, 2014 We present a novel method of manufacturing rigid and robust short natural fiber preforms using a papermaking process. Bacterial cellulose acts simultaneously as the binder for the loose fibers and provides rigidity to the fiber preforms.

Fabrication of sisal fibers/epoxy composites with liquid crystals polymer grafted on sisal fibers
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2016 In this word, microcrystalline cellulose fibers (MCFs), extracted from sisal fibers, were treated with function end-group hyperbranched liquid crystals (HLP). This work brought some insights into the successful surface modification in epoxy composite with HLP. The HLP-MCFs/epoxy composites are studied systematically.
