Impact of Hot Water Treated Lotus Leaves on Interfacial and Physico-Mechanical of Gelatin/Lotus Leaf Composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of leaf treatments on mechanical, physical and chemical properties and thermal stability of the gelatin/lotus leaf composites was analyzed, and it was found that longitudinal orientation delivered higher mechanical properties than that of the transverse and random orientation whether untreated or treated.

Comparison of water absorption in natural cellulosic fibres from wood and one-year crops in polypropylene composites and its influence on their mechanical properties
TL;DR: In this article, a new natural fibres/polypropylene composites were made and the water absorption in them was studied by immersion of the composites in water at three different temperatures, 23, 50 and 70 °C, and the process of absorption of water was found to follow the kinetics and mechanisms described by Fick's theory.

A study of fibre and interface parameters affecting the fatigue behaviour of natural fibre composites
TL;DR: The tension-tension fatigue behavior of different natural fiber reinforced plastics was investigated in this paper, where composites used were made of flax and jute yarns and wovens as reinforcements for epoxy resins, polyester resins and polypropylene.

Effect of hydrothermal environment on moisture absorption and mechanical properties of wood flour–filled polypropylene composites
TL;DR: In this article, the degree of moisture absorption was found to be dependent on the modification of matrix, the weight percentage, mesh size, and surface treatment of wood flours, and the extent of such increment decreased with increasing the immersion temperature.
