“…Similarly, the thrust towards sustainable materials have encouraged researchers in replacing synthetic fillers with bio‐based fillers like wood flour, bio‐fibers and rice husks, and so forth . In the recent years, there has been increasing interest in the field of bio‐based thermoset resins and composites in various high performance end‐use applications . Among the thermosets, epoxy resins have received growing attention owing to its excellent strength and modulus, higher dimensional stability and better chemical resistance .…”

Epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) was synthesized and characterized for use as secondary component in bio‐based epoxy copolymer cured with bio‐renewable phenalkamine. Environment friendly biocomposites were developed using unidirectional sisal fibers as reinforcement in epoxy and epoxy‐ELO co‐polymer as matrices. Unidirectional sisal fibers in mat form were incorporated at [0/0] orientation within ELO‐modified epoxy in different composition (10, 20, and 30 phr of ELO) to ensure a proper balance between stiffness and toughness. Tensile, impact and flexural strength of the bio‐based epoxy composites improved significantly for 20, 30, and 10 phr of ELO respectively as compared with unmodified counterpart. The thermomechanical analysis of the biocomposites reveals improved storage modulus and damping on addition of about 10 and 20 phr of ELO bio‐resin. The morphological study shows good interfacial adhesion of matrix and fibers in bio‐based epoxy composite while a poor interface is observed in unmodified epoxy composite. This work paves the way for design and development of sustainable biocomposites of higher bio‐source content (up to 69%) for energy absorbing high strength demanding applications. POLYM.

“…Over the last 2 decades, due to the ever growing prices of petroleum‐based resources, and environmental contamination, economic researchers in both industry laboratories and academia are actively engaged to explore sustainable alternatives to chemicals derived from petroleum‐based compounds and formulate new strategies to meet the these challenges . In recent years, an intensive investigation has been done to develop sustainable materials from vegetable oil, rosins, lignin, gallic acid, and other renewable raw materials . Photoinduced curing technology which possessed superior properties including high speed, fast production rate at ambient temperature, low energy consumption, less environmental damage, and free of volatile organic compounds, has a wide range of applications in coatings, adhesives, inks, dental composites, and composites .…”

A novel kind of biobased monomer, epoxidized cardanol‐based acrylate (ECA), was successfully synthesized from cardanol via acrylation and epoxidization. The chemical structure was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance. Then, the ECA was employed to produce UV‐curable films and coatings copolymerized with castor oil‐based polyurethane acrylate. Compared to coatings from petroleum‐based diluent hydroxyethyl acrylate‐based castor oil‐based polyurethane acrylate resins, ECA‐based biomaterials exhibited a little inferior dilution ability but overcome the drawback of high volumetric shrinkage with a special lower value. Moreover, ultimate properties of the UV‐cured biomaterials such as thermal, mechanical, coating, swelling, and hydrophobic properties were investigated. The UV‐curing behavior was investigated using real‐time IR, and the overall double bond conversion was more than 90%. This biobased UV‐curable cardanol‐based diluent shows a promise in “green + green” materials technologies.

“…On the other hand, going green and going functional are the two major themes in material development in the world. To develop greener composites, an increasing number of researchers are focused on the 'greening' of raw materials such as developing bio-based epoxy resin matrix and applying natural fibers as the reinforcement [2][3][4]. To develop functional composites while maintaining their performance, many studies focus on the application of nanomaterials, for instance by improving the conductivity of composites for lightning-strike protection and electromagnetic shielding [5][6][7].…”

Abstract:The effect of plant-fiber paper or silver nanowires-loaded paper interleaves on the electrical conductivity and interlaminar fracture toughness of composites was studied. Highly conductive paper was prepared by surface-loaded silver nanowires. The percolation threshold appeared at about 0.4 g/m 2 . The surface resistivity reached 2.3 Ω/sq when the areal density of silver nanowires was 0.95 g/m 2 . After interleaving the conductive papers in the composite interlayers, in-plane electrical conductivity perpendicular to the fiber direction was increased by 171 times and conductivity through thickness direction was increased by 2.81 times. However, Mode I and Mode II interlaminar fracture toughness decreased by 67.3% and 66.9%, respectively. Microscopic analysis showed that the improvement of conductivity was attributable to the formation of an electrical conducting network of silver nanowires which played a role in electrical connection of carbon fiber plies and the interleaving layers. However, the density of the highly packed flat plant fibers impeded the infiltration of resin. The parallel distribution of flat fibers to the carbon plies, and poor resin-fiber interface made the interlaminar fracture occur mainly at the interface of plant fibers and resin inside the interleaves, resulting in a decline of the interlaminar fracture toughness. The surface-loading of silver nanowires further impeded the infiltration of resin in the densely packed plant fibers, resulting in further decline of the fracture toughness.
