“…The disposal of these synthetic fibers is a big issue, it will produce high CO 2 content and they are non biodegradable. Now natural fiber hybridization was done for the enhancement of properties [16][17][18][19][20].The addition of filler incorporation with higher inorganic content enhanced the mechanical properties of polymer composites. Sugar cane is used in thermal power plant as a raw material for producing thermal energy and thus to rotate turbines in the plant [21,22].…”

This research was based on influence of various fly ash filler content in the machining properties of Pineapple (P)/Sisal (S) hybrid fiber reinforcement composites. Fly ash from bio waste materials of Bagasse (BGFA), Banana (BFA) and Coir (CFA) were used. High hardness nature of 3% BFA (22.73 HV) and 3% CFA (23.85 HV) reduces Material Removal Rate (MRR) and increases its surface roughness nature of the composites. Maximum MRR of 376.38 mm 3 min −1 was observed in 3% BGFA combinations with 250 MPa Water jet Pressure (WP), 1mm Standoff Distance (SOD) and 20 mm min −1 Traverse Speed (TS) as machining parameters. MRR of 353.64 and 352.76 mm 3 min −1 was found out with 1% CFA and 1% BFA combinations. Lower surface roughness of 6.39 μm, 6.71 μm and 6.75 μm was found in 3% BGFA, 1% CFA and 1% BFA based composites. Filler surface created a tight bonding with the matrix, which reduces the erosion of fiber particles at higher WP. Untreated fibers showed lesser machining properties due to low fiber/matrix bonding. SEM results showed reducing of cracks and matrix breakages by the substitution of filler powders.

“…The PALF fibre has an average density of 1530 kg/m 3 and tensile strength of approximately 290.61 MPa [2]. The chemical composition of PALF fibre has about 70%-82% holocellulose, 5%-12% lignin, and 1.1% ash [15]. Similar to other natural fibre, PALF is also susceptible to moisture absorption.…”

“…Many options for treatment is available to perform surface modification on natural fibre, such as alkaline, compatibilising agent, permanganate, peroxide, and benzoylation [17,18]. One favourite treatment among researchers is the compatibilising agent of maleic anhydride due to ease of processing and cost-effectiveness [19]. The most outstanding compatibilising agents are maleated anhydride of polyethylene (MAPE) and maleated anhydride polypropylene.…”

Fast-growing scientific work is focusing on alternative sources to replace modern synthetic fibre materials due to the adverse effects caused by petroleum-based materials. Natural fibre possesses high potential as a replacement for synthetic fibre and petroleum-based products. These materials are not only greener and environmental-friendly, but also safe for human health. As such, this study investigated the influence of compatibilising agent of maleated anhydride polyethylene (MAPE) on mechanical performance of pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) reinforced polylactic acid (PLA). The raw materials, such as PALF, PLA, and MAPE, were mixed by using a hot roller mixer machine and hot compression moulding at 190ºC. The specimens were then tested for water absorption and flexibility. The specimens were submerged in water for 0, 7, 14, and 21 days. Three types of tests were conducted, namely water absorption, tensile, and flexural assessments. The results of water absorption, tensile, and flexural tests for the untreated PALF composite (UPALF) and treated PLAF composite (TPALF) were recorded and explained. As a conclusion, composite materials based on hydrophilic natural fibre may reduce the tensile and flexural properties of the composite.

“…Jaafar et al (2018) fabricated PALF (at 10 wt%, 20 wt%, 30 wt%, and 40 wt%) and PLA biocomposites. The optimal percentage of filler was 30 wt%, with improvements in tensile strength, tensile modulus, flexural strength, and impact strength of 42%, 165%, 69%, and 10%, respectively (Jaafar et al 2018). Huda et al (2008) examined the effects of untreated and treated PALF fibers in a PLA matrix.…”

“…With the long fibers, the flexural strength and modulus increased from 56.4 to 114 MPa and 4.3 to 5.7 GPa when treated, respectively, with 30 wt% loading. The authors attributed this increase to the alkaline treatment increasing the surface roughness of the fibers, causing a rough surface at the matrix-fiber interface (Ramli et al 2016 The addition of PALF to a polymer matrix improved the mechanical properties, compared to a neat biopolymer (Jaafar et al 2018). The mechanical properties were further improved with the addition of compatibilizer into the PALF/biopolymer system (Liu et al 2005;Kim et al 2012) or with surface treatment of the PALF (Huda et al 2008;Ramli et al 2016).…”

Currently, food waste is a major concern for companies, governments, and consumers. One of the largest sources of food waste occurs during industrial processing, where substantial by-products are generated. Fruit processing creates a lot of these by-products, from undesirable or “ugly fruit,” to the skins, seeds, and fleshy parts of the fruits. These by-products compose up to 30% of the initial mass of fruit processed. Millions of tons of fruit wastes are generated globally from spoilage and industrial by-products, so it is essential to find alternative uses for fruit wastes to increase their value. This goal can be accomplished by processing fruit waste into fillers and incorporating them into polymeric materials. This review summarizes recent developments in technologies to incorporate fruit wastes from sources such as grape, apple, olive, banana, coconut, pineapple, and others into polymer matrices to create green composites or films. Various surface treatments of biofillers/fibers are also discussed; these treatments increase the adhesion and applicability of the fillers with various bioplastics. Lastly, a comprehensive review of sustainable and biodegradable biocomposites is presented.
