Journal ArticleDOI
Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of literature on bio-fiber reinforced composites is presented in this paper, where the overall characteristics of reinforcing fibers used in biocomposites, including source, type, structure, composition, as well as mechanical properties, are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of nanofibers from agricultural residues: wheat straw and soy hulls.
Ayse Alemdar,Mohini Sain +1 more
TL;DR: After mechanical treatments of cryocrushing, disintegration and defibrillation, the thermal properties of the nanofibers were studied by the TGA technique and found to increase dramatically and is reasonably promising for the use of these nanofiber types in reinforced-polymer manufacturing.
Journal Article
Cellulosic nanocomposites: a review
TL;DR: A review of recent work shows that considerable progress has been achieved in addressing these issues and that there is potential to use cellulosic nano-components in a wide range of high-tech applications as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical Properties of Biodegradable Composites from Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) and Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC)
TL;DR: In this paper, a biodegradable composites were prepared using microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as the reinforcement and polylactic acid (PLA) as a matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress Report on Natural Fiber Reinforced Composites
TL;DR: A review of natural fiber reinfocred composites focusing on natural fiber types and sources, processing methods, modification of fibers, matrices (petrochemical and renewable), and their mechanical performance is presented in this paper.
