Recyclability analysis of PLA/Sisal fiber biocomposites

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2019
Abstract This study presents the recyclability analysis of PLA/Sisal biocomposites comprising sodium bicarbonate treated Sisal fibers (30 wt%). The biocomposites were recycled (8 times) using the extrusion process. The tensile strength of injection molded biocomposites declined by 20.9% up to the third recycle.

Production of Paper Pulp Using Sisal Fiber Waste from Sisal Spinning Processes

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2022
Disposal of large volumes of textile waste is an escalating problem for textile industries. Sisal spinning industry is the one of the textile industries releasing large volumes of textile waste in the landfills. The rising costs, and reduction of available space together with increasing stringent environmental measures are making burying and land ...

Effect of Sisal Fiber Surface Treatments on Sisal Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene (PP) Composites

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
Abstract: The Interface of sisal fiber which was treated by using alkali, potassium permanganate, atmospheric plasma and silane reinforced polypropylene composites were investigated by single fiber pull-out testes and surface morphology were studied. The results indicated that the morphological changes observed on the sisal fiber surface were obviously

Flexural Strengthening of RC Beams with Sisal Fiber Composites and Sisal Fiber Rods

Materials Science Forum, 2016
The present study is conducted to examine the effectiveness of sisal fiber in flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. In order to obtain this objective, two different strengthening configurations are adopted (use of sisal fiber composites and use of sisal fiber rods). A total of five flexural strengthened reinforced concrete beams are

Mercerization of sisal fibers: Effect of tension on mechanical properties of sisal fiber and fiber-reinforced composites

Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 2010
Abstract Sisal fibers were mercerized, under tension and no tension, to improve their tensile properties and interfacial adhesion with soy protein resin. Mercerization of fibers under tension is known to minimize fiber shrinkage and to lower the microfibrillar angle by aligning them along the fiber axis. Mercerization improved the fracture stress and
