Biocomposites made from natural fibers have attracted significant attention in recent years owing to the global concern regarding plastic accumulation. In this investigation, ramie fiber was employed as a natural fiber reinforcement in the acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) matrix to enhance the biodegradability of the polymer composite. ABS/ramie fiber composites were prepared by compression molding with various wt% (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt %) of ramie fibers within the ABS matrix. Subsequently, the biodegradability, water absorption, mechanical properties, viscoelastic behavior, and thermal characteristics of the prepared composites were evaluated. The biodegradation test results demonstrated that there was a positive correlation between the concentrations of fibers in neat ABS. The maximum biodegradation of the composites was 2.56% at 20 wt% ramie fibers in the ABS matrix. Moreover, an increase in the wt% of ramie fiber led to an increase in water absorption. Although the tensile strength and impact strength decreased with increasing fiber content, the tensile modulus of the ABS/ramie fiber composites initially increased up to 5 wt% fiber and then started decreasing, and the natural fibers in ABS reduced the viscoelastic properties. The objective of developing ABS/ramie fiber composites is to utilize them as environmentally sustainable materials in automotive manufacturing industry.

“…Moreover, it serves as an indicator of poor interfacial bonding between fiber and matrix [59]. Additionally, this curve can be plotted to reveal the relationship between E′ and E″ [17,60,61]. The nature of the Cole-Cole mapping allows for evaluation of the viscoelastic properties and homogeneity of the studied biocomposites [22,[62][63][64].…”

In this research work, we aim to study the effect of the incorporation of vegetable fiber reinforcement on the thermo-mechanical and dynamic properties of a composite formed by a polymeric matrix reinforced with cellulosic fibers with the various Washingtonia fiber (WF) loadings (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% by wt%) as reinforced material in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) Biocomposites to evaluate the optimum fiber loading of biocomposites. In addition, several characterization techniques (i.e., thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and thermal mechanical analysis (TMA)) were used to better understand the characteristics of the new composites prepared. With these techniques, we managed to verify the rigidity and thermal stability of the composites so elaborated, as well as the success of the polymer and the structural homogeneity of the obtained biocomposites. Hence, the biocomposite with the best ratio (HDPE/20WF) showed a loss modulus (E″) of 224 MPa, a storage modulus (E′) of 2079 MPa, and a damping factor (Tanδ) of 0.270 to the glass transition (Tg) of 145 °C. In addition, thermomechanical analysis (TMA) of the biocomposite samples exhibited marginally higher Ts compared to the HDPE matrix. The best results were recorded with biocomposites with 20% WF, which showed better thermal properties. This composite material can be used as insulation in construction materials (buildings, false ceilings, walls, etc.).

“…Since its hardness is about 9 Mohs scale, its resistance to abrasion, thermal degradation and hardness is very high. Chokkalingam et al 14 examined the mechanical, wear and dynamic mechanical properties of an aloevera fiber‐epoxy composite made from Indian rice husk biomass ash Si 3 N 4 . The composite with 1 vol% of particle showed improved tensile, flexural and Izod impact strengths of 154 MPa, 194 MPa, and 5.26 J.…”

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of adding Indian red matta rice husk Si3N4 bioceramic on flammability, wear, mechanical and thermal behavior of corn husk fiber‐reinforced polyester composites. The Si3N4 bioceramic was prepared using thermo‐chemical process and subsequently surface‐treated using silane via aqueous solution method. The composites were made using hand layup method and post cured at elevated temperature. The results of this investigation suggest that adding 30 vol% of corn husk fiber improved the mechanical properties as compared to pure epoxy, however the Si3N4 addition outperformed. Similar to this, the composite with 4.0 vol% of bioceramic particle has the highest wear resistances, with a lowest sp. wear rate of 0.008 mm3/Nm and a coefficient of friction of 0.31. According to the flammability results, the composite contains 30 vol% of corn husk fiber and 4 vol% of Si3N4 (ECS3) has the lowered combustion rate of 6.72 mm/min. Finally, the composite ECS3 produced the lowest creep strain of 0.0104, 0.0122, 0.0149, 0.0241, and 0.0444 for 2000, 4000, 6000, 8000, and 10000 s respectively. These composites with improved properties could be used in cutting edge latest technologies as functional materials in automotive, defense, food packaging, structural, and domestic goods manufacturing.
