Thermal and structural properties of surface treated ragweed fiber reinforced biodegradable polylactic acid biocomposites
Abstract: Natural fiber-reinforced composites (NFRC) are becoming more popular as technological advance recognizes the need for eco-friendly materials. This work presents Giant ragweed (Ambrosia trifida) as a new composite reinforcement material into polylactic acid (PLA) matrix to form novel natural fiber-reinforced composites. Different types of retting techniques are utilized, and hydrogen peroxide retting is proven to provide the most optimized properties. The fibers are taken through subsequent extraction and grinding processes. …

Review of Composites formed of Thermoplastic as Organic Fibers
Abstract: Composites made of structural monomers gave rise to thermoplastic polymers (TMCs). Due to their usage of a thermoplastic matrix, these materials really aren't chemically reactive. TMCs may be remoulded without degrading when heated and become softer. They harden into the final shape when they cool. Thermoplastic materials bonded with plant fibers may one day be used to create impact- absorbing structure for renewable power. Its impact features of organic fiber-reinforced …
