The preparation of high performance materials using renewable resources is a prime goal in
materials science. Composites are amply recognized as an effective route to achieve a new …

The effect of processing temperature on the interfacial adhesion, mechanical properties and
thermal stability of bio-flour-filled, polypropylene (PP) composites was examined as a …

This paper shows and discusses the morphology, thermal and transport properties of solvent
cast biocomposites of poly (lactic acid)(PLA), polyhydroxybutyrate-co-valerate (PHBV) and …

Cactus fruit waste seeds (CWS) are a by-product of the cactus fruit processing industry. Until
now, CWS are not recoverable in any sector. The valorization of these residues may reduce …

Low-density polyethylene was filled with cellulose fibres from sugar cane bagasse obtained
from organosolv/supercritical carbon dioxide pulping process. The fibres were also used …

In this work, a lignocellulosic flour was achieved by grinding the cladodes of Opuntia Ficus
Indica and then added to a poly-lactic acid (PLA) in order to prepare biocomposites by melt …

Publisher Summary Environmental issues have recently generated considerable interest in
the development of composite materials based on renewable resources such as natural …

Hemp fibers (HF) were treated with γ-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-
Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPS) and …

In this work, Opuntia ficus-indica (OFI) fibers were used as natural reinforcement to high-
density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix to valorize unexploited Moroccan natural resources in …

Date Palm Fiber (DPF) is one of the most available natural fibers in the Middle East,
especially in Iran and the Persian Gulf region. This research provides a new insight into …
