Abstract:Carbon Nanosphere (CNs) has been successfully synthesized from bamboo fibers at low temperatures by carbonization and activation. For activation used Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) at temperature 105°C, 155°C, 205°C, 255°C and 305°C. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) spectra shows hexagonal and amorphous phase and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra shows decrease C-O bond with increasing activation temperature. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) image for activation temperature of 105°C confirmed that sources the … Show more

“…Fibers from cotton show the highest cellulose in between 82 to 96 wt % , 48 followed by pineapple, around 80–81 wt %, and the lowest is kapok (Yang et al, 2020) followed by bamboo. 49 Cellulose is also the reinforcement for lignin, hemicelluloses, and pectin. 50…”
Considering sustainable environmental problems due to waste and the enormous potential of natural plant resources in producing natural fibers has encouraged researchers to make environmentally friendly composite materials reinforced with fibers. Several articles on using natural fibers as composite reinforcement have been collected and studied to produce this article. This article aims to comprehensively describe the physical properties, chemical composition, factors that affect fiber quality, and their relationship with mechanical properties. In the first section, we introduce the general classification of plant fibers and summarize the annual production and category of fiber origin used for fiber-reinforced composites. It then presents the parts of plants and plant species for fiber, including fruit, leaf, and seed fibers, and discuss their characteristics. Further describes the chemical compounds and physical and mechanical properties based on fiber sources. Based on our discussion, this review shows that plant fibers are very suitable as an alternative to polymer-based reinforcement materials due to low cost, renewable, and environmentally friendly composites. However, compatibility with synthetic polymers, dimensional stability and processability must be actively considered to replace synthetic fibers in various applications.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
