Influence of Chemical Surface Modification on Micro-Wear Characteristics of Sugarcane Nanocellulose Epoxy Nanocomposites

In recent years, the revolutionary utilization of plant fibers in polymer laminates significantly influenced environmental effects. Presently, there is progression attention in advancing bio-based materials by acquiring plant fibers from lignocellulosic components for different applications like non-structural, structural laminates, automobile components, ballistics, flooring, household utensils, and aerospace parts. These bio-based, eco-friendly components have been recognized as next-generation contestants for higher-efficacy, sustainable, cheap, environmentally friendly, and lightweight composites. Different kinds of synthetic and natural biopolymers and bio-based nanoparticles have been applied to produce sustainable materials. Bio-based polymer composites manifest unique characteristics of both eco-reinforcement and sustainable resin. This review comprehensively communicates the general characteristics and principles of nanoparticles, polymers, and their respective composites. In addition to the machining characteristics, challenges and future perspectives of the polymer composites have also been reviewed.

Biocomposites with inherent advantages such as biodegradable, recyclable, readily available, lower cost, and lower carbon footprint conveniently replace synthetic plastics. Despite being environmentally friendly, biocomposites should be functionally stable and structural in a rigorous environment. Thus, a study of biopolymer composites with exposure to various aging conditions, especially of humidity environment, which is of necessary concern, is considered here in this review. The aging experiments are often conducted at an accelerated rate at a specific time in respective environments to reduce the experimental time called accelerated aging. The vibration behavior of the biocomposites was conducted to determine the damping behavior of the composites is described in detail.

Fiber‐reinforced composites have found their prominent place in various applications, including aerospace, automobile and marine manufacturing industries, because of outstanding properties obtained during composite preparation. One such aspect of improving the composite property is hybridization, where natural fibers (or both natural and synthetic fibers) are combined to obtain different composite structures for diverse applications. This research aims to hybridize the composite considering Kenaf fabric and Kevlar fabric reinforced in an unsaturated polyester matrix with different proportions. Three different laminate sequences (L1, L2, and L3) were developed by considering the fabric's stacking sequence, weave pattern, and orientation. The composite laminates prepared were tested where Taguchi's method (L9 orthogonal array) and artificial neural network were used to study influencing parameters for tribological behavior of the composite. From the practical information, a prediction model from the artificial neural network is applied to forecast the wear rate of the laminates at a broader range of operating factors beyond and within the test phase. The microstructures of the worn surfaces were investigated from a scanning electron microscope to confirm the wear principle of the laminates under different cases.
