Strength Characteristics of Electrospun Coconut Fibre Reinforced Polylactic Acid: Experimental and Representative Volume Element (RVE) Prediction

Abstract: Environmental conservation and waste control have informed and encouraged the use of biodegradable polymeric materials over synthetic non-biodegradable materials. It has been recognized that nano-sized biodegradable materials possess relatively good properties as compared to conventional micron-sized materials. However, the strength characteristics of these materials are inferior to fossil-based non-biodegradable materials. In this study, biodegradable polylactide (PLA), reinforced with treated coconut husk pa… Show more

“…Maximum fracture stress of 0.51 MPa was attained with PLA/CNHL/60 0 C/2 h. There is a 44-344 % improvement in fracture stress of neat PLA (0.018 MPa) when reinforced with lignin. The enhanced fracture stress could be attributed to the control interfacial bond between lignin reinforcement and PLA matrix as stated in Ogunbiyi et al, (2022).…”

“…However, due to the demand for net zero carbon emissions, biodegradable polymers are also being explored in other industries, such as automobiles, electronics, and biomedical engineering [ 6 , 7 , 8 ]. Because of its extensive benefits, including low energy consumption, environmental friendliness, high transparency, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and reliable mechanical properties [ 9 , 10 , 11 ], PLA has become one of the most commercialized biobased synthetic polymers and accounts for more than 25% of global biodegradable polymer production.…”

“…Tiene una amplia gama de aplicaciones, que incluyen envasado de alimentos, aislamiento e incluso piezas de automóviles. Es una opción sostenible, renovable y biodegradable [4] que es mejor que los envases de plástico y papel, los cuales perjudican más en comparación con el tiempo que se demoran en degradar.…”
