A review of recent developments in natural fibre composites and their mechanical performance (2016, background): “Many studies have reported improvements in interfacial shear strength (IFSS) and improved tensile strength, Young’s modulus, failure strain, impact strength, fracture toughness and flexural properties of composites as well as thermal stability and long term moisture resistance, the latter of which c”
Effect of surface treatment on thermal stability of the hemp-PLA composites: Correlation of activation energy with thermal degradation (2014, background): “The chemical modification of fibers can be further classified into two groups; chemicals that result in coupling, such as silanes [15,16] and anhydrides [17] and the once that result in mechanical bonding between polymer and fiber, such as sodium hydroxide [1,16,18].”
Effect of surface modification of bamboo cellulose fibers on mechanical properties of cellulose/epoxy composites (2013, background): “The cellulose can act as reinforcement of both thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers, as well as template for functional composites [5–18].”
