A review on synthesis and characterization of commercially available natural fibers: Part II (2019, background): “Pineapple leaf fiber composites show onset temperature for thermal degradation at lower temperature, that is, 270°C, which is mainly due to low thermal stability than PC resin (Threepopnatkul, Kaerkitcha, and Athipongarporn 2009).”
A Review on Pineapple Leaves Fibre and Its Composites (2015, methodology): “These modification methods can be alkaline treatment [33] grafting with malic anhydride copolymer [34] and using saline coupling agent [35].”
Effect of Alkali Treatment on the Properties of Century Fiber (2013, background): “Many researchers have reported improvements in mechanical properties of polymer composites when chemically modified natural fibers are used as reinforcement (Das and Chakraborty 2008; John and Anandjiwala 2008; Singha et al. 2009; Threepopnatkul et al. 2009).”
