TL;DR: In this article, the tensile properties of hybrid composites were found to increase substantially with increasing jute fibres loading as compared to oil palm-epoxy composite, and the overall use of hybrid system was found to be effective in increasing tensile and dynamic mechanical properties of the oil palm/polyurethane composite probably due to the enhanced fibre/matrix interface bonding.

TL;DR: The agricultural waste fibers are of notable economic and cultural significance all over the world are used for building materials, as a decorative product and as a versatile raw product, and have significant potential in composite due to its high strength, environmentally friendly nature, low cost, availability and sustainability.

TL;DR: Scanning electron micrographs show that PF resin placement in OPT polymer composites was better, and resin penetration retained the original dried OPT structure, and the dimensional stability of the OPT polymer composite with the highest resin loading was slightly lower when compared to rubberwood.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the variability in pine resin production of a pine stand in Bosscha Observatory Bandung (Indonesia) with the aim to exploit this natural resource in a sustainable way.

TL;DR: In this paper, a phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin treatment of OPTL with various concentrations of finely ground palm shell, together abbreviated PF-FGPS, has been used to improve termite resistance.
