“…Furthermore, the possible presence of moisture in the fabric could be reflected in the intensity of the broad band in the region of 3400 cm À1 and it may also contribute to the deformation of water molecules near 1650 cm À1 . In general, the FTIR band identified of Manicaria fabric compares well with other reported values for new natural cellulosic fabric [44,45].…”

“…The peach palm fiber had an average tensile strength of 213.5 MPa and a Young's modulus of 10.8 GPa when the total area was used (area taking into account all voids). This behavior was compared to that of other natural fibers, such as piassava (d 'Almeida et al 2006), coir (Defoirdt et al 2010;Ferreira et al 2014), jute (Fidelis et al 2013), sisal (Silva et al 2008), curauá (Tomczak et al 2007;Spinacé et al 2009), bamboo (Prasad andRao 2011), okra (De Rosa et al 2010), Lygeum spartum L. (Belouadah et al 2015), banana (Prasad and Rao 2011), alpha (Brahim and Cheikh 2007), and hemp (Jayaramudu et al 2010).…”

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation into the mechanical behavior and microstructural characteristics of peach palm fibers. The fiber morphology was studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the results of the mechanical tests were correlated with the fiber microstructure. The specimens were submitted to direct tensile tests in a state-of-the art microforce testing system using three different gauge lengths. The cross sectional areas of the fibers were measured using SEM micrographs and image analysis. The fiber microstructural characteristics were determined via thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. The measured Young's modulus was corrected for machine compliance. Weibull statistics were used to quantify the degree of variability in fiber strength at the different gauge lengths. The failure mechanisms were described and discussed in terms of the fiber microstructure, as well as defects in the fiber. The results showed that the fiber void content had a large influence on the fiber tensile strength and elastic modulus but the amount of main voids did not influence the fiber strength.

“…At present, the most used plant in the extraction of fibers are sisal, hemp, flax and bamboo by using different plants parts such as: bast, leaf, seed, fruit, wood, stalk, and grass fibers (Mawaikambo, 2006). Currently, researchers do many studies on the characterization of new lignocellulosic fibers as Okra (De Rosa, 2010;De Rosa, 2011), Posidoniaoceanica (Khiari et al, 2011), Artichoke (Fiore et al, 2011) and Grewia tilifolia (Jayaramudu et al, 2010). In Algeria, there are many plants which can be used in the extraction of fibers (Harche, 1985;Harche et al, 1990;Benahmed et al, 2006) but until now there are any studies on these plants.…”

The aims of this study were to determine the good conditions for fibers extraction from Retama monosperma young stems and their mechanical, physical and chemical characteristics. The fibers were extracted using a range of NaOH concentration from 1 to 16% in a period of treatment of 1 to 24 h, coupled with a physical treatment. For the evaluation of physico-mechanical characteristics, 200 samples were performed in the tensile test. The biochemical composition of the fibers was determined after separation of the parietal compounds. The results show that the best fiber yield was 11.51% obtained by a treatment of 14% NaOH for 8 h, followed by a physical treatment. The fibers biocomposition was 87.3% of cellulose, 7.5% of hemicelluloses and 1% of lignin. The Young's modulus was 13.3 GPa, tensile strength was 110 MPa and a density was 1.3 g/cm 3 . The average fiber length was 155.7 mm. The fibers yield and characteristics showed that R. monosperma plant may in future be suitable source for natural fibers.
