The manufacture and characterisation of short banana fibre-reinforced polymer composites

Raghavendra Subramanya et al.

Summary: Polymeric materials reinforced with synthetic fibres have advantages of high stiffness and strength to weight ratio compared to conventional materials. However, their use tends to decline due to high initial costs, non-efficient structural forms, and environmental impact. Chemical modification of banana fibres improves the mechanical and thermal properties of polymeric composites, as longer fibre lengths enhance the interfacial interactions with the epoxy matrix, resulting in increased tensile strength.

Influence of alkaline treatment on sisal fibre applied as reinforcement agent in composites of corn starch and cellulose acetate matrices

Roberta Ranielle Matos de Freitas et al.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of alkaline treatment on sisal fiber in different types of composites, showing that the treatment partially removed hemicellulose and lignin from the fiber. The SEM analysis revealed improved fiber/matrix adhesion in composites using modified fiber, while DMA analysis indicated enhancements in mechanical properties with the addition of sisal fiber. Additionally, TGA results showed an increased initial temperature of thermal degradation in cellulose acetate matrix composites with fiber addition.
