“…Recently, tribological analysis of polymer composites based on natural fibers such as jute (Chand and Dwivedi 2006), cotton (Hashmi et al 2007), sisal (Xin et al 2007;Chand and Dwivedi 2010), oil palm (Yousif and El-Tayeb 2008), sugarcane (El-Tayeb 2008), kenaf (Chin andYousif 2009), betelnut (Singh Gill andNirmal et al 2010), and bamboo (Nirmal et al 2012) have been performed. However, there have been few studies on the effect of aging in corrosive solutions (such as sea water and acid rain) on the wear behavior of the NFPCs (Yousif and Nirmal 2011;Jiang et al 2017a, b).…”

The application of wood-plastic composites is growing rapidly in the fields of corrosion and aging. The present study investigated the effect of alkalitreated (with NaOH concentrations of 0.5, 2.5, 4.5, and 6.5%) sorghum straw (SS) fiber on the wear resistance of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites under simulated seawater and acid rain conditions. The results showed that the wear resistance of the SS/PVC composites was noticeably improved by the addition of the alkali-treated SS fiber. SS fiber treated with 4.5% NaOH showed low polarity and hydrophilicity with high crystallinity and improved mechanical properties, which endowed the SS/PVC composites with high interfacial bonding and wear resistance. Exposure to simulated seawater and acid rain resulted in the deterioration of physical (including water repellency and hardness), mechanical, thermal, and wear-resistance properties of the composites; the wear mechanism of the SS/PVC composites after corrosion for 12 days was mainly abrasive wear.

Epoxy resins and their fibre or particulate composites are widely used in various industries, including building, naval, aircraft, automotive and aerospace. Modern polymer science and technology focus on the development of green polymers and composites. There are two major areas of interest in the case of epoxy resins: the development of bio-based resins and the production of composites with natural fibres. One of the most interesting challenges is developing fully bio-based composites: that is, epoxy resins based on renewable resources and natural fibres. This paper presents a review of literature on epoxy resins and hardeners based on renewable resources (especially vegetable oils) and epoxy composites with natural fibres. We also describe some of the effective methods of improving the mechanical properties of epoxy-natural fibres composites, including chemical modification of the fibre surface and the application of hybrid reinforcements.

“…In the last decade, several major industries, such as the construction and building industries, have shown considerable interest in the progress of high-wear-resistance WPC materials (Omrani et al 2016). Tribological analyses of WPCs such as jute/polypropylene, cotton/polyester, sisal/phenolic resin (or polyester), oil palm/polyester, sugarcane/polyester, kenaf/epoxy, betelnut/ polyester, and bamboo/epoxy have been performed Dwivedi 2006, 2008;Hashmi et al 2007;Xin et al 2007;El-Tayeb 2008;Yousif and El-Tayeb 2008;Chin and Yousif 2009;Singh Gill et al 2009;Nirmal et al 2010Nirmal et al , 2012.…”

Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are experiencing rapid growth in terms of applications where they may be subject to degradation and wear. This paper investigated the effect of sorghum straw (SS) fiber, pretreated with a mixture of stearic and palmitic acids, on the wear behaviors of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites in alternated simulated sea water and acid rain aqueous conditions. The results showed that the water resistance of the SS/PVC composites improved noticeably after pretreatment with 0.80 wt% stearic and 0.50 wt% palmitic acid (0.8SA-0.5PA). The SS/PVC composites pretreated with 0.8SA-0.5PA exhibited high water (moisture) resistance, hardness, mechanical, thermal, and wear resistance properties. Exposure to degradative water worsened interfacial bonding, and degraded the matrix strength and heat resistance, which reduced the wear resistance of the SS/PVC composites. The wear mechanism of the SS/PVC composites after 12 d of soaking was abrasive wear.
