This research is focused on the study of the physical, chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties of a newly identified natural stem fiber, Cyperus pangorei. The chemical composition of Cyperus pangorei fibers (CPF) such as cellulose, lignin, ash, moisture, and wax contents was evaluated. Besides these, the fiber density was determined and the apparent diameter was measured using an optical microscope. Further, tensile, thermal, XRD, and FT-IR studies were performed to evaluate the suitability of the fiber as a reinforcement. The surface topography of CPF was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Encouraging properties such as increased stiffness, fiber texture, and higher thermal stability suggest the suitability of CPF as reinforcement in polymer matrices.
