Composição química, propriedades mecânicas e térmicas da fibra de frutos de cultivares de coco verde

Abstract: RESUMO-o consumo da água de coco verde, in natura ou industrializada, vem gerando um grande problema ambiental, devido ao destino final da casca dos frutos. Aproximadamente 85% do peso bruto do coco verde é constituído pelas cascas, que são acumuladas em lixões ou às margens de estradas. Como a minimização da geração desse resíduo implicaria a redução da atividade produtiva associada, o seu aproveitamento tornase uma necessidade. Neste sentido, este estudo teve como objetivo investigar as características da fi… Show more

“…Cotton linter presented low levels of humidity, ash and lignin, whereas a high content of cellulose was reached. Based on these data and according to literature cotton linter can be assumed as a promising material to make the PCL compounds [16][17][18][19] . …”

“…Probably these properties are linked to a well dispersed cotton linter (fibrils) and cotton nanolinter (particles) within the PCL matrix (see SEM images in Figures 13 and 14). That was obtained due to appropriated processing conditions 16,[39][40] . Mechanical properties in flexion for PCL and its compounds with cotton linter and cotton nanolinter are showed in Figure 7.…”

“…Segundo Corradini et al (2009), a fibra do coco verde por ser constituído de carboidratos como lignina e celulose, podem ser utilizadas na obtenção de açúcares fermentáveis (monossacarídeos) para a preparação de etanol lignocelulósico.…”

“…Coconut fiber is obtained after the greencoconut shell is ground, and the powder is obtained after pressing and separation of the fibers. These wastes are rich in lignin and cellulose, with lignin content ranging from 37.2±0.8% to 43.9±0.7% and cellulose from 31.5±0.1% to 37.4±0.5% (Corradini et al, 2009).…”
