Effect of Mercerization on Mechanical Properties of <i>Grewia Optiva </i>Natural Fiber Polymer Composites
Sonika Chauhan,
Prakash Chandra Gope
Abstract:The concerns towards sustainable development have triggered the need of adopting biodegradable products in different applications. The natural fibers are being widely explored in the field of composites for various applications. Sustainable architecture is also seeking the research and development of new materials to minimize the negative environmental effect of the traditional structural materials. A bast fiber obtained from Grewia Optiva (G.O.) tree is abundantly available in the sub-Himalayan terrains and i… Show more
