Characterization of natural fiber and composites – A review

Sathishkumar, TP, Navaneethakrishnan, P, Shankar, S, Rajasekar, R, Rajini, N·2013·Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites

Abstract

The natural fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials offered extensive range of properties which are suitable for large number of engineering application. The natural fibers have been abundantly available in the world. It has unique properties compared to synthetic fiber and reduces the plastic usage. This article reports the extraction process of natural fibers, characterization of natural fibers, and preparation of natural fiber-reinforced composites. The mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural, impact, and dynamic properties as well as thermal and machinability properties of the composites with and without chemically treated fibers were reported. The water absorption capability of the composites and its effect on mechanical properties were also reported.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
