“…Some research groups have also attempted to find how different factors affect the performance of existing natural fibers composites [13][14][15][16][17]. Jute fibers are typical examples of natural fibrous reinforcement extracted from the stem of Jute plants, and are one of the most affordable natural fibers available in the market, second only to cotton in terms of amount produced and varieties of applications (baskets, carpets, shoes, cloths and ropes).…”

The work describes the mechanics of novel woven jute fibers reinforced polyester (JFRP) laminates under uniaxial and multi-axial static and fatigue loading cases. JFRP laminates with 25 % fibre volume fraction (FVF) have been manufactured using a hand-layup molding technique at a low pressure. Static uniaxial tests have shown that these novel bio-reinforced laminates have an ultimate tensile strength around 42 MPa under tensile loading and 7.5 N-m under torsional loading. The Multi-axial (tension/torsion) static tests yield an ultimate strength of 21.7 MPa and 5 N-m for tensile and torsion loading conditions, respectively.Fatigue tests have been carried out under displacement and angular control at three different loading levels with a frequency of 5Hz. The fatigue tests results are extensively analyzed using stiffness degradation behavior, hysteresis loops, energy dissipation and strain versus number of cycles (ɛ-N) diagrams. The fatigue endurance limit (over one million cycles) for JFRP is achieved at a stress level of 65% of ultimate displacement. The implication of this work is the use of these materials in areas such as car and aircraft interiors promises to significantly reduce weight, cost and carbon footprints without sacrificing performance.

“…Cellulose degradation was registered with a peak at 361 °C, with a weight loss of 30%. The cellulose content and degradation peak were similar for most agave fibers [ 39 , 54 , 55 ]. An equivalent of 9.4% of the mass persisted at the end of the test.…”

Local production of construction materials is a valuable tool for improving the building sector sustainability. In this sense, the use of lignocellulosic fibers from local species becomes an interesting alternative to the development of such materials. As it is thought that the properties of fiber-based materials are dependent on the fibers properties, the knowledge of such properties is fundamental to promote materials development. This study compares the physical, morphological, acoustic, and mechanical characteristics of coir (Cocos nucifera) and fique (Furcraea Agavaceae) fibers and panels. The chemical composition appears to be associated with the general behavior of the fibers and panels, regarding higher tensile strength, thermal degradation behavior, and water absorption. In most tests, fique had the upper hand, showing superior performance; however, on thermal degradation and water absorption, both materials had similar behavior. The sound absorption measurement showed that the fiber diameter affects the sound absorption at high frequencies, where fique panels showed better performance than coir panels.
