“…are found. With the continuity of the technological development of composite materials, researchers have discovered novel fibers in the nature that have the same advantages such as Native African Napier Grass (Reddy et al, 2018), Furcraea foetida , Aegle marmelos (Sandeep et al, 2017). Natural fibers are considered as natural composites composed mainly of cellulose fibrils (fibers) incorporated in the lignin matrix (resin).…”

In this work, novel cellulosic fibers are extracted from Washingtonia Filifera (WF) plant using an environment friendly technique. Morphological, physico-chemical, thermal and mechanical properties are reported in this paper. Micro graphical SEM shows the presence of cells in the fiber. FTIR and XRD experimental analyzes show a cristinality index of 48.88%, and the WF fibers are found to be thermally stable until 201°C by using TGA and DTG thermo graphic analyzes with an appropriate activation energy of 72.46 kJ/mol, where Young modulus and tensile strength of strain were determined using tensile tests of single fiber at 2.17 GPa, 134 MPa and 26.55%, respectively. Mechanical properties are analyzed using a statistical method.

“…Most of the drawbacks can be overcome by using natural fibers in the place of synthetic fibers. The usage of naturally available products (fibers, agriculture wastes and wood) as reinforcement in green composites has been increased enormously, because of its biodegradable character, economical and high abundance in availability availability (N. C. Sandeep et al 2017; Reddy et al 2010;Thakur et al 2010;Wambua et al 2003). Poor compatibility between fiber and matrix has been one of the main problems ran across in using the natural fibers in composites (Singha and Rana 2012).…”
