Thermomechanical and structural analysis of green hybrid composites based on polylactic acid/biochar/treated W. filifera palm fibers

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 30, P. 9656 - 9667

Published: May 1, 2024

The purpose of this study is to investigate the chemical treatment impact on Washingtonia filifera (WF) fibers using sodium bicarbonate (10% NaHCO3) for varying durations (24, 48, 72, 120, and 168 h) physical mechanical characteristics polylactic acid (PLA)/WF-biochar/biomass hybrid biocomposites. Differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were employed examine temperature effect mineralogical composition treated raw WF monitor their thermal behavior. produced biocomposites' tensile, impact, flexural, morphological evaluated. results demonstrate that treatments improve matrix-fiber adhesion remove impurities from fiber surface. Hybrid biocomposites PLA biopolymers manufactured biochar given a 72 h exhibit improved properties, such as elasticity modulus strength under tensile flexural forces. Consequently, these new can be used in various structural non-structural products, car interiors, 3D printer filament, biomedical equipment materials, sports equipment, food packaging.

ANN and RSM Prediction of Water Uptake of Recycled HDPE Biocomposite Reinforced with Treated Palm Waste W. filifera

Journal of Natural Fibers, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 21(1)

Published: June 2, 2024

This study examined the water uptake (WU) behavior of recycled high-density polyethylene (RHDPE). The biocomposites made palm waste Washingtonia (PWW) fibers were treated with 3% sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) for 24 h. Several RHDPE materials reinforced different concentrations PWW (5 to 30 wt.%) until saturation, or roughly 25 days, developed investigate WU kinetics and diffusion in biocomposites. An artificial neural network (ANN) response surface methodology (RSM) methods applied model measured experiments optimize immersion period fiber content RHDPE/PWW biocomposite WU. moved swiftly during first test phase was completed after 400 h soaking. outcomes demonstrated a perfect fit between observed anticipated data. Findings showed that ANN models' training, test, validation correlation coefficients 0.9984, 0.9955, 0.9723, respectively, predicting Concerning accuracy reliability, outperformed RSM model, making it suitable various industrial uses. results offer helpful information professionals consider when developing implementing
