“…Hydroxyl based materials are usually detected in the region of 3400 cm -1 to 3300 cm -1 . The peak at 2901 and 1598 could be attributed to C-H stretching bend of cellulose and C=C stretching of the aromatic ring of lignin, respectively [22,[41][42][43][44]. The peak observed at 1421 cm -1 can be ascribed to CH stretching while the 1368 cm -1 can be associated with C-H bending stretch of cellulose.…”

“…Also some references have been found about the extraction of fibres from Agave Americana L. leaves for their use in composites production [12][13][14]. It has been demonstrated that the fibres extraction process greatly influences the properties of the obtained fibres; Bezazi et al have shown that fibres obtained without water use (by burying the leaves in the ground for 3 months) had better mechanical properties than fibres from water retting [15]. Other authors have used a pectinase solution for fibres obtaining [16,17] or a hydrolysis process followed by leaf calendaring [18].…”

“…In addition, as shown in SEM micrographs (Fig. ), these fibers exhibited relatively large diameters (279.28 ± 108.80 μm), and it is well known that the fiber strength decreases with increasing diameter, due to the probability of defect occurrence . In addition, extracted Diss fibers were not perfectly separated and appeared to be still organized in bundles of fibers (technical fibers).…”
