A review of natural fiber composites: properties, modification and processing techniques, characterization, applications (2019, methodology): “[181] Random-oriented kenaf fiber/polystyrene composite 50–120 Compression molding 45% and 25% increases in the storage modulus and tand (the ratio of viscous to elastic properties) through 5% silane fiber treatment, respectively Pothan and Thomas [182] Abaca fiber/polyester composite 50–250 Compres”
Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites and comparison with jute and flax fibre PP composites (2007, background): “[9–12] reported dynamic mechanical properties, effect of hybridization and chemical modification of abaca fibre reinforced polyester composites in compression moulding process.”
Study of hybrid intralaminate curaua/glass composites (2012, background): “Pothan and Thomas [13] studied the dynamic behavior of chemically banana fiber reinforced polyester composites and noted that the chemical modification has improved the storage modulus and the glass transition temperature due to an improvement of the fiber/matrix adhesion.”
