In Situ Produced Bacterial Cellulose Nanofiber-Based Hybrids for Nanocomposites

Fibers, 2017
Two high-performance bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofiber-based hybrid structures were produced using an in situ self-assembly approach, one with microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and another with sisal fiber, by incorporating them in the fermentation media.

Influence of Manganese Dioxide (MnO2) Coated Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Spikelet Fibers on the Physicochemical and Mechanical Properties of Fiber Cement Composites

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
MnO2‐coated OPEFB fibers produced via a simple wet process showed smoother surfaces and significantly reduced water absorption in fiber cement composites, enhancing moisture resistance. ABSTRACT The use of natural fibers in cement‐based composites is increasingly encouraged as a sustainable alternative to synthetic fibers; however, their inherent ...
