Additive manufacturing (AM) is being used more widely because of the simplicity of the operating procedures. It decreases material consumption during part production and eliminates material waste. Fused deposition modeling (FDM), a well‐known AM process, uses thermoplastic polymer as a feedstock to manufacture the end design. Pure thermoplastic‐based products are still utilized as prototypes in several sectors due to their lack of strength and durability. This problem has been solved by strengthening the thermoplastics by adding a reinforcing element. Composites are made of polymers and various constituents known as reinforcing components. This article overviews natural reinforced polymer composites used in the FDM process. Mechanical and Thermal properties are presented based on natural filler percentage, and this article only considered natural composite filaments for the FDM process.

“…[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Among the plant cellulose fiber, sisal is one of the most broadly applied fibers in yarns, twines, carpets, mats, rugs, cords, ropes, handcrafted, and mattresses components. [15][16][17][18][19][20] It is a rigid fiber separated from the leaves of Agave sisalania in terms of many long fibers. A sisal fiber creates around 250 leaves, and every leaf includes 1000 bundles of fibers made up of 87.25%, 0.75%, 4%, and 8% of water, cuticle, dry matter, and Fiber, respectively.…”

In the present investigation, the chemically treated and untreated sisal/hemp fibers, fly ash or titanium carbide (TiC) nanofillers, and Kevlar fabrics reinforced bio epoxy (Sr 56) polymer matrix were manufactured using the wet layup method. Experimentation was performed to study the physical, mechanical and thermal properties. This investigation also includes determining the influence of accelerated weathering on the specimen surface for 5 months. The tensile fracture of the sample before and after the accelerated weathering from scanning electron microscope (SEM) pictures exhibited that the extensive failure principles in the laminates in terms of matrix cracking, fiber breakage, delamination, and fiber pull out. The thermal analysis examined the onset, endset temperature, transition loss, and carbon residue which were also reduced after the accelerated weathering. It exhibits that adding fly ash or TiC nanoparticles as an altered inhibitor against the weathering in the bio epoxy hybrid composite scheme can reduce the undesirable impacts from moisture and Ultra‐violet light exposure.Highlights Sisal/hemp fibers were chemically treated to reduce hydrophilicity. Contact angle of KSCHCTBE56 improved to 84.04°. SEM confirmed uniform dispersion of fillers and enhance mechanical strength. Mechanical and thermal characteristics reduced after accelerated weathering.

“…Based on the forecast of manufacturers, biodegradable polymers may soon be competing with the commodity plastics due to the sales increase of more than 20%-30% per year and improvements in the economics of sale. [63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76] The issue in replacing standard plastics with biodegradable materials is to create materials that are morphologically robust during storage and disposal while also being environmentally friendly. When polymeric composites are exposed to external influences like temperature and humidity, the mechanical properties decreases which is one of the critical concern.…”

Aging effects on free vibration and damping characteristics of polymer‐based biocomposites: A review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Biocomposites with inherent advantages such as biodegradable, recyclable, readily available, lower cost, and lower carbon footprint conveniently replace synthetic plastics. Despite being environmentally friendly, biocomposites should be functionally stable and structural in a rigorous environment. Thus, a study of biopolymer composites with exposure to various aging conditions, especially of humidity environment, which is of necessary concern, is considered here in this review. The aging experiments are often conducted at an accelerated rate at a specific time in respective environments to reduce the experimental time called accelerated aging. The vibration behavior of the biocomposites was conducted to determine the damping behavior of the composites is described in detail.
