A Review on Pineapple Leaves Fibre and Its Composites (2015, unknown): “The result of PALF based polymer composites shows excellent stiffness and strength compared to other cellulose based composite materials [73].”
Pre-treatment of Flax Fibers for use in Rotationally Molded Biocomposites (2007, background): “Alkali treatment improves the fiber–matrix adhesion due to the removal of natural and artificial impurities [3].”
Mechanical properties of woven jute–glass hybrid-reinforced epoxy composite (2014, methodology): “Mishra et al.(33) have determined the mechanical and impact behavior of agrowaste pineapple leaf fiber, which is rich in cellulose and potential for polymer reinforcement and also examined their fiber–matrix adhesion by using scanning electron microscope.”
Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010 (2012, methodology): “The quality enhancement of pineapple leaf fiber has een attempted using different surface modifications like ewaxing, alkali treatment, cyanoethylation and grafting crylonitrile onto dewaxed fibers [116].”
