“…The results state that PS/3% TiO 2 addition has better natural frequency value due to excellent surface contact with resin, hybrid natural fibers and filler/resin interface, making higher stiffness to the composites and improving natural frequency. Pineapple, sisal and banana fiber composites produced good natural frequencies in the previous studies [16,30].…”

“…Sisal and banana fiber with 3 and 4 mm length and fiber wt% of 50 improved the damping applications of bio-fiber composites [16]. Natural fiber composites found good natural frequencies and damping ratio by the addition of pineapple fibers in polyester-based composites [30]. In the literature, it is clear that very fewer researches were done in the field of vibration damping applications for natural fiber-reinforced composites.…”

In this research, chemically synthesized titanium oxide (TiO 2) nano-powder was utilized for upgrading mechanical and vibrational applications of pineapple, banana and sisal fibers. The substitution of TiO 2 upto 3% enhanced the tensile, impact and flexural strength of pineapple/sisal, sisal/banana and banana/pineapple hybrid combinations. Irregular dispersion of nano-filler at 4% degrades the mechanical stability of bio-composites. Pineapple and sisal hybrid combinations with 3% TiO 2 filler has the highest natural frequency due to excellent surface contact with resin/hybrid natural fibers and filter/ resin interface making higher stiffness to the composites with improved natural frequency. Natural frequency and damping properties enhanced with nano-filler mixing. The factors such as frictional properties and energy dissipation at maximum strain area in the filler make increment in the damping nature of the natural composites. In the equal fiber weight% of 35, pineapple-based hybrid composites make better damping rate by the higher interface thickness and smaller diameter of pineapple fiber than other two fibers.

“…Good mechanical properties related to the high content of cellulose in pineapple leaf fibers can transfer a sizable load from the matrix to the fiber effectively. 15 In addition, Melkamu et al have investigated the mechanical properties and water absorption in sisal/polyester fiber composites with treated fibers and without alkaline sodium hydroxide treatment. Compressive strength in sisal fibers treated better than untreated fibers with low water absorption advantages.…”

A teak leaf waste/polyurethane composite has been made for particleboard application. Some fraction variations are performed on the use of polyurethane as a matrix with a range of 0.04–0.20 (w/w). Mechanical and physical properties have been tested on the composites produced. The test results showed that the highest compressive strength of the sample reaches 38.5 MPa for polyurethane fraction of 0.14 (w/w). The composite has a density of 1261 kg m−3 which is in accordance with the result of density on teak. The physical properties have been also investigated and it was found that the lowest value of water absorption is 1.38%. This result indicated that the composites produced are potentially to replace wood raw material in eco-friendly industrial scale.
