Mechanical, water absorption and wear characteristics of novel polymeric composites: Impact of hybrid natural fibers and oil cake filler addition

Abstract: A novel epoxy-based composites were fabricated by reinforcing pineapple/flax (PF) fibers and peanut oil cake (PCF) filler using the hand layup cum compression moulding technique and investigated its mechanical, water absorption and wear properties as a function of wt.% of PF fibers (20–40 wt.%) and PCF (1–3 wt.%). The XRD and FTIR results proved the presence of lignocellulosic nature in PCF. Mechanical test results showed significant enhancement in the properties after the addition of PCF. The maximum tensile,… Show more

“…Several researchers have also reported similar observations in their research articles. [73][74][75] This can be due to the thermal softening of the epoxy matrix as a result of excessive heat generation at the interface of the composite and counter surface, which may have contributed to the excessive material loss. [76] Also at a higher load, there is a greater chance of detachment of the lubricant film, which is also responsible for excessive…”

“…This fact assists in more consideration on development of light weight material with better performance. Among polymerbased materials, fibre reinforced polymer composite material particularly attains more attention owing to its low density, high specific strength with better stiffness comparable to conventionally used steel [1,2]. Due to this, facts, fibre-based polymer composite, are consider as advanced engineering materials, has wider range of applications that includes automobile, defence, aerospace, etc.…”

“…The developed composites were characterized for various mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural, and impact as per ASTM D638-17, ASTM D790-17, and ASTM D256-10. [3] A universal testing machine (UTM) of capacity 400 kN was used to examine tensile properties at a 5 mm/min crosshead speed. The dog boneshaped sample of dimensions 165 mm  19 mm, and the mid-span length was 57 mm were cut from the developed composites and fixed between the grippers.…”

“…Natural fiber utilization is the best solution to overcome this situation. [1][2][3][4] Natural fibers such as areca, sisal, kenaf, bagasse, ramie, banana, and so on are the replacements used for various applications. These fibers are chosen based on their availability, properties, and geographical impact.…”
