“…Kumar et al [200] performed an experimental investigation on the vibration properties with a polyester matrix composite woven coconut sheath and short banana fibers varying the layering structure of the composite and found that the coconutbanana-coconut stacking scheme of composite absorbed maximum vibrational energy, pointing to a high damping of the layering pattern. Pandian and Jailani [201] experimentally studied the vibrational characteristics of jute, linin, and silica fumes-reinforced epoxy composites and found that the addition of the silica fume filler increased the natural frequency of the composite. However, a silica filler beyond 2 wt% decreased natural frequency.…”

A rapid growth in the research and employment of natural-fiber composites (NFCs) has been observed in the last years. This is explained by their many advantages, such as the biodegradability, eco-friendliness, a relatively low cost, and good mechanical properties. Despite these advantages, they also possess some undesirable features, such as difficulties in processing, high fiber moisture absorption, low impact strength, low durability, poor fire resistance, and poor compatibility between fibers and matrix. Much effort has been applied to minimizing these issues in order to extend the capabilities and applications of this group of materials. In an attempt to provide a better insight into NFCs, an up-to-date review of their manufacturing routes, different applications, and mechanical performance is very required. This review aims to address the above-mentioned issues challenges encountered when dealing with such materials.

Synthetic fibres (SF) are replaced by natural fibres (NF) and are utilized as polymer reinforcement owing to their eco-friendliness. The composite has been introduced in the current development by employing NF as reinforcement and stuffing in the polymer matrix (PM). The advantages of using natural resources are being eco-friendly, having plentiful natural availability, higher strength, lower cost, and a simple extrication process. When heated to a specific temperature, certain synthetic products create noxious materials. Therefore, replacing these synthetic substances with natural substances has greater advantages for the environment. In this study, a novel NF extricated from the Caribbean royal palm (CRP) along with its features is determined to replace the harmful SF effectively. The CRP’s leaf stalks, termed CRP leaf stalk fibres (CRPLSFs), are extricated and categorized by (i) thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), (ii) scanning electron microscopy (SEM), (iii) Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, (iv) physical-chemical analysis, (v) X-ray diffraction (XRD), and (vi) tensile test (TT). The physical-chemical characteristics of CRPLSFs, cellulose content (CC), tensile strength (TS), density, and hemicelluloses correlate with other NF characteristics. The CRPLSFs’ chemical components include hemicelluloses (14.52%), lignin (9.15%), and cellulose (61.67%). The TGA shows that the CRPLSFs are thermally stabilized up to 326°C. The XRD proved that the CRPLSFs are enriched with a cellulose fraction comprising a crystallinity index (CI) of 30.27%. The outcomes recommended that the biodegradable coconut peduncle leaf stalk fibres (CPLSF) could be exploited as possible reinforcement in the PM composite structure and can be engaged in making composites.

“…Damping factor of T15, K15 and M15 composite increases by 81.2%, 54.24% and 46.72% respectively when Natural frequency increases as quantity of filler increases in base matrix. Enhancement in natural frequency was achieved based on the increase in stiffness of the beam, modulus of elasticity and interfacial bonding between filler -base matrix [24][25][26] . Natural frequency of the composite (T15, K15 and M20) was increased by 33.33%, 16.66% and 16.66% respectively when compared to pure nylon (N).…”

“…Natural frequency and damping factor were measured by performing modal analysis. The natural frequency and damping factor are considered as an important vibration parameter, when the material is subjected to both constant and cyclic loading [24][25][26] . The mechanical properties and modal analysis of the composites were also simulated using ANSYS 18.1 software and simulated results were compared with experimental results.…”
