Journal ArticleDOI
Recent progress on natural fiber hybrid composites for advanced applications: A review
Mokgaotsa Jonas Mochane,Teboho Clement Mokhena,T. H. Mokhothu,Asanda Mtibe,Emmanuel Rotimi Sadiku,Suprakas Sinha Ray,Idowu David Ibrahim,O.O. Daramola +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors cover recent developments from 2013-up to date on hybrid composites, based on natural fibers with other fillers, and the current challenges are also presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dependency of the Mechanical Properties of Sisal Fiber Reinforced Recycled Polypropylene Composites on Fiber Surface Treatment, Fiber Content and Nanoclay
Idowu David Ibrahim,Tamba Jamiru,Rotimi Sadiku,Williams Kehinde Kupolati,Stephen C. Agwuncha +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, chemically treated sisal fiber (SF) reinforced recycled polypropylene (rPP) nanocomposites were prepared, and the results showed that fiber modification, addition of MAPP and nanoclay inclusion, led to an improvement in the mechanical properties and reduced the rate of water absorption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of sisal fibre-reinforced polymer composites: a review
Idowu David Ibrahim,Tamba Jamiru,Emmanuel Rotimi Sadiku,Williams Kehinde Kupolati,Stephen C. Agwuncha,Gbenga Ekundayo +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanical properties of sisal fiber-reinforced polymer composites have been studied by many researchers and a few of them are discussed in this review paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of polypropylene in bamboo fibre composites and their mechanical properties – A review:
Idowu David Ibrahim,Tamba Jamiru,Rotimi Sadiku,Williams Kehinde Kupolati,Stephen C. Agwuncha,Gbenga Ekundayo +5 more
TL;DR: Bamboo fibre has gained significant interest as a sustainable reinforcement fiber in natural fibre/polymer composites, which is as a result of specific mechanical properties and being a biodegradable fiber as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Surface Modification and Nanoparticle on Sisal Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene Nanocomposites
Idowu David Ibrahim,Tamba Jamiru,Emmanuel Rotimi Sadiku,Williams Kehinde Kupolati,Stephen C. Agwuncha +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mixed blend of sisal fiber and recycled polypropylene (rPP) was produced at four different fiber loadings: 10, 20, 30, and 40wt.
