TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of treatment of the fibers and its hybridization on the mechanical behavior and thermal behavior of composites is also explained, and the influence of treatment and hybridization of the sisal fiber is explained.
Abstract: Modern-day researchers and scientists indulge to develop green and biodegradable composites for causing a minimal impact on the environment. This progression ascertained the use of natural fiber composites, which are biodegradable, low cost, and less impact on the environment over the inorganic fiber composites. Sisal fiber is one of the natural fibers which are extracted from the leaf of the sisal plant. Sisal fibers are abundantly grown in the tropical and subtropical regions of coastal Andhra Pradesh, India. In this present study, the author explains the effect of mechanical behavior of the sisal fiber composites reinforced with different polymers. The influence of treatment of the fibers and its hybridization on the mechanical behavior and thermal behavior of composites is also explained.

TL;DR: In this paper, the buckling load of sisal fiber-reinforced composite with waviness has been studied under compressive loading and two types of composite materials are considered for the study.
Abstract: Sisal fiber-reinforced composites have huge potential applications in many industries. Different defects during the production process of the composite may decrease the performance of these composites. In the present work, one of the important defects such as the waviness of the sisal fiber has been studied under compressive loading. Two types of composite materials are considered for the study. One is sisal fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composite and another one is hybrid composite i.e sisal fiber and carbon nanotube reinforced polymer matrix composite. The sisal and hybrid sisal straight fiber composite specimens are prepared by using the hand lay-up technique. The buckling load of the sisal and sisal hybrid composites is estimated by conducting suitable experiments. Further, using the Finite Element method the effect of the waviness of sisal fiber on the buckling load is estimated. Two different wavy patterns such as Full Sine Waviness (FSW) and Half Sine Waviness (HSW) are considered for sisal fiber. The position effect of waviness of the fiber on the same property is also estimated by changing (A/λ) ratio from 0.1 to 0.35 by changing the amplitude of waviness from 5 to 17.5 mm (A) and maintaining the length of waviness (λ) to 100mm. The present study is used to design the buckling load of natural composite with waviness because the perfectly straight fibers are difficult to extract from plants.
