“…The content of PP‐grafted maleic anhydride compatibilizer (C) in the amount of 3.3 wt% has been accepted the same as in our previous researches . This concentration occurs within the effective interval of maleic anhydride compatibilizer for lignocellulosic fillers reinforced polyolefine composites as demonstrated also by authors of following researches . Especial attention is devoted to preparation of lignocellulosic biomass fillers by means of mechanical pretreatment/milling and steam explosion auto‐hydrolysis at different severity levels.…”

Oat and spelt husks (OH and SH, respectively) lignocellulosic biomass derived fillers have been compared with commercial wood flour (WF) in respects to their morphology, chemical composition, bulk density, aspect ratio, and thermal stability. OH and SH have been obtained by both mechanical milling and steam explosion auto‐hydrolysis treatment at various processing conditions. Reinforcement efficiency of OH and SH derived lignocellulosic biomass fillers on the flexural properties of maleic acid‐grafted polypropylene (PPgMA) compatibilized polypropylene (PP) composites is compared with that of WF. The compatibilized PP composites have been manufactured by melt compounding. Flexural test specimens of the compatibilized PP composites have been manufactured by injection molding. It has been demonstrated that both the husks derived lignocellulose fillers can be used to improve flexural modulus and maximal flexural strength of PP, although its modifying effect is somewhat smaller in comparison to WF reinforcement, most probably due to higher cellulose content of the latter. Husks derived lignocellulose filler‐reinforced PP composites, however, demonstrate increased flexibility in comparison to WF‐filled systems. POLYM. ENG.

“…MAPP addition with 10% and 15% acts as a hindrance and limits the stress transfer across the interfaces. [ 233 ] Recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr)/banana skin powder (BSP)–polypropylene composites produced by hot compression molding process are treated with 5% polypropylene maleic anhydride (PPMAH). Interfacial adhesion between NBRr/BSP‐PP has been enhanced with the compatibilizing agent PPMAH and higher values of tensile strength and modulus are obtained at 80/20/10 combination of PP/NBRr/BSP‐PPMAH.…”

Application of natural fiber-polymer composites (NFPCs) in different industrial applications provides competitive edge due to their lightweight, higher specific mechanical properties than glass fibers, sustainability, and lower cost involved in production. There are certain challenges associated with natural fibers and their reinforcement in composites such as poor bonding between the fibers and matrix due to their contradictory nature of characteristics, moisture absorption, lower thermal properties, and poor interfacial adhesion between the natural fiber and polymer matrix. The challenges involved in NFPCs need to be overcome to produce materials with relatively equivalent properties to those of conventional composites and other metallic structures. Several researchers around the globe have conducted investigations with the primary attention being paid to the modification of natural fibers and matrix by employing surface treatments and other chemical treatment methods. In order to address the need for eco-friendly and sustainable materials in different domains, a comprehensive review on natural fibers and their sources, available matrix materials, modification techniques, mechanical and thermal properties of NFPCs, is needed for better understanding of the behavior of NFPCs. This work provides the information and holistic view of natural fiber-reinforced composites based on the results obtained from modification techniques, with the view of focusing the review in terms of different chemical and physical treatment techniques, modification of fibers and matrix, and enhanced mechanical and thermal properties in the composites.
