Mechanical performance of hybrid glass/kenaf epoxy composite filled with organomodified nanoclay

Response surface methodology for optimization of nitrocellulose preparation from nata de coco bacterial cellulose for propellant formulation

“…Moreover, it can also be found in certain fungi, bacteria, animals, and to a lesser extent, in tunicates (small, sessile marine animals) [ [1] , [2] , [3] ]. Numerous plants, including oil palm [ [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] ], pineapple [ 8 ], giant reed [ 9 ] and kenaf [ 10 ], are significant sources of this remarkable material. Nevertheless, natural cellulose often coexists with other plant components, such as lignin, hemicellulose, pectin, and starch.…”

Mechanical and thermal properties of cotton-bamboo fabric/glass fiber epoxy composites

“…Carbonyl group at 1604 cm -1 represented the group of lignin components [32]. Reduction in the hydrogen bonding removed hydroxyl group from the solution carboxyl and hydroxyl groups with hydrogen bonded on the surface of the natural fibers fatty acids were discovered in the group at the range of 3000 cm -1 to 3600 cm -1 showing the reduction of hydrogen bonded hydroxyl group on the way of the treatment of natural fiber with NaOH [29].…”

The Capabilities of Honeycomb Core Structures Made of Kenaf/Polylactic Acid Composite under Compression Loading

“…Core cell size and filled foam core affected the mechanical properties. Moreover, in past studies, there were several popular manufacturing processes to produce composite, such as hand lay-up, the vacuum-assisted resin transfer moulding process (vacuum fusion), and compression moulding [23,24]. However, additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing, such as fused filament fabrication (FFF), stereolithography (SLA), or selective laser sintering (SLS), is dynamically evolving as the most advanced and high-potential manufacturing process to manufacture products for various applications due to its high accuracy and design freedom.…”
