Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a novel natural cellulosic fiber from Prosopis juliflora bark
TL;DR: Natural fibers from plants are ideal choice for producing polymer composites and bark fibers of Prosopis juliflora (PJ), an evergreen plant, was analyzed extensively to understand its chemical and physical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of mechanical properties of banana and sisal fiber reinforced epoxy composites: Influence of glass fiber hybridization
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of glass fiber hybridization with the randomly oriented natural fibers has been analyzed, and the tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength were evaluated and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of New Natural Cellulosic Fiber from Acacia leucophloea Bark
TL;DR: In this paper, the characteristics of fiber extracted from the bark of the Acacia leucophloea (AL) plant and its physico-chemical properties were investigated, and thermal studies using TG and DTG analysis revealed that they degraded at a temperature of 220°C with kinetic activation energy of 73.1kJ/mol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tyre pyrolysis oil as an alternative fuel for diesel engines – A review
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the use of tyre pyrolysis oil as an alternative fuel for diesel engines is presented, which sheds light on the importance of this fuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of Physico-Chemical Properties of Alkali-Treated Prosopis juliflora Fibers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used prosopis juliflora fibers (PJFs) to change their physico-chemical properties; 5% (w/v) NaOH concentration and 60min of soaking time were found to be optimal.
