“…The thermogram of the B/PP, J/PP, and pure PP showed a progressive weight loss as the temperature increased. The composite samples degraded in two phases: they became brittle and then they crumbled [ 31 ]. A progressive two stage thermal degradation occurred: the first stage is the degradation of the matrix, and the second stage is the degradation of fibers.…”

This paper presents a study conducted on prepregs manufactured by a novel method for the impregnation of a thermoplastic matrix. Different composite prepregs based on polypropylene and reinforced with natural fibers (e.g., basalt and jute fibers) were developed. The mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties were investigated. DMA tests were conducted at 1 Hz frequency and properties such as storage modulus and damping (tan δ) were evaluated. The overall mechanical properties of the basalt fiber composites were found to be superior to that of the jute fiber-based samples. Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TG/DTG) of the composite samples showed that the thermal degradation temperatures of the basalt-based composites shifted to higher temperature regions compared to the PP or jute fiber composites. The addition of basalt fiber considerably improved the thermal stability of the composite samples. Microscopic images of the tensile fractured composite samples illustrated better fiber–matrix interfacial interaction due to the novel technology of prepregs. Single-ply and 2-ply prepregs showed significantly superior mechanical, thermal, and thermo-dynamical performance compared to the control sample (pure PP). 2-Ply composites demonstrated higher modulus, tensile strength, and storage modulus due to the higher fiber volume fraction. Basalt-based samples showed a minimum weight loss of about 57% up to 700 °C in contrast to 96.05% weight loss in the jute-based samples and 98.4% in the case of pure PP. The heat resistance index (THRI) is more than twice for basalt compared to jute and PP. Furthermore, the superior thermal stability of basalt is reflected in its DSC curves, showing the highest endothermic peak. The technique of using the resin in the form of thermoplastic yarns offers cost effective and efficient alternatives for composite manufacturing.

“…The composite samples in which the A1 2 O 3 particles were closely packed had an external surface polymer that inhibited particle‐supported reinforcement. [ 29 ] Consequently, although the ability of the composite samples to resist damage under the action of impact forces strengthened, the hardness of the composite samples decreased.…”

In order to improve the erosive wear resistance of bamboo fiber‐reinforced high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) composites, the effect of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) on the erosive wear behavior of composites was investigated. The study of erosive wear was using the swirling water jet technique. The results showed that the addition of nanoscale Al2O3 could optimize the structural strength, composite structure, and erosive wear resistance of composites. The best erosive wear resistance was observed in composites containing 6/189 wt% of nanoscale Al2O3, 80/189 wt% of bamboo fiber, 100/189 wt% of HDPE, and 3/189 wt% of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene. The composites with and without adding nanoscale Al2O3, both exhibited a maximum erosive wear rate at a shooting distance of 0.5 cm and an erosive duration of 180 s. The erosive wear mechanism of composites mainly included pulverization of bamboo fibers, brittle fracture of HDPE matrix, and increasing in oxygen content.

“…The use of coupling agents, as studied by Raghu [ 24 ], showed that the impact strength of RH–PP composites decreased with increasing filler loadings. Jiang et al [ 41 ] explored the possibility of reinforcing RH–PVC composites with basalt fibers (BF) and found a noticeably increase in impact strength, whereby the BF acted as a reinforcing agent and strengthened the mobility of the matrix chains. Additionally, the aspect ratio of BF was higher than RH, thus the shift of the stress from the matrix to the fiber was more effective.…”

Recently, because of the rising population, carbon overloading, and environmental distress, human beings have needed to increase awareness and responsibility for the reduction of agricultural waste. The utilization of agricultural waste as a filler material in reinforced polymers is a fascinating discovery. This review paper attempts to study the physical, mechanical, and thermal behavior of rice husk (RH) as a fiber for reinforcing various synthetic polymers, based on recent studies, conducted between 2017 and 2021. It also highlights that advanced modification techniques could further improve the performance of composites by tailoring the physical and chemical substances of the fiber or matrix. The thermal properties, including flame-retardance and thermal behavior, are also discussed. The characteristics of the fiber–matrix interaction between RH and the polymer matrix provide essential insights into the future-ready applications of this agricultural waste fiber. The way forward in researching RH polymer composites is finally reviewed.
