Journal ArticleDOI
Sisal fibre and its composites: a review of recent developments
Yan Li,Yiu-Wing Mai,Lin Ye +2 more
TL;DR: Sisal fiber is a promising reinforcement for use in composites on account of its low cost, low density, high specific strength and modulus, no health risk, easy availability in some countries and renewability as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of fiber surface-treatments on the properties of poly(lactic acid)/ramie composites
TL;DR: In this paper, Ramie fiber reinforced poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites were prepared by a two-roll mill and Ramie was treated by alkali and silane (3-aminopropyltriethoxy silane and γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane).
Journal ArticleDOI
Tensile and interfacial properties of unidirectional flax/glass fiber reinforced hybrid composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the mechanical properties of unidirectional flax and glass fiber reinforced hybrid composites with the aim of investigation on the hybrid effects of the composites made by natural and synthetic fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of alkali treatment on interfacial bonding in abaca fiber-reinforced composites
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of mild alkali treatments on the mechanical characteristics and interfacial adhesion of the fibers in a model abaca fiber/epoxy composite system was systematically evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of alkali treatment on internal microstructure and tensile properties of abaca fibers
Ming Cai,Ming Cai,Hitoshi Takagi,Antonio Norio Nakagaito,Masahiro Katoh,Tomoyuki Ueki,Geoffrey I. N. Waterhouse,Yan Li +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of alkali treatment on the internal microstructure and tensile properties of abaca fibers was investigated, and it was found that the lumen of the abaca fiber completely collapsed after 10 and 15-wt% NaOH treatment, due to swelling of the fibers.
