ABSTRACT
Natural fibers are gaining popularity among researchers and academics for use in polymer composites due to their environmental friendliness and long-term viability.A new series of green composites using chicken feather fiber (CFF) and jute as reinforcing materials in a polypropylene resin-based polymer matrixwere used to fabricate the hybrid composites. This paper examines the impact of molding pressure, temperature, and time on the tensile strength and water absorption characteristics of compression molded hybrid composites. The findings of experiments undertaken to evaluate hybrid composites produced with different fiber fractions and processing parameters are discussed in this paper.When the composites’ overall tensile strength was compared, the 100% Jute fiber composite had the highest tensile strength when the maximum pressure, temperature, and time were kept constant. Temperature and pressure have a considerable impact on composite sample tensile strength, whereas time has little influence.As predicted, raising the jute weight percentage in composites increases water absorption.
摘要
天然纤维因其环境友好性和长期生存能力而越来越受到研究人员和学者的欢迎, 用于聚合物复合材料. 以鸡毛纤维 (CFF) 和黄麻为增强材料, 在聚丙烯树脂基聚合物基体中制备了一系列新型绿色复合材料, 用于制备混杂复合材料. 本文研究了模压压力、温度和时间对模压混杂复合材料拉伸强度和吸水性能的影响. 本文讨论了用不同纤维组分和工艺参数制备的混杂复合材料的实验结果. 当最大压力、温度和时间保持不变时, 100%黄麻纤维复合材料的总拉伸强度最高. 温度和压力对复合材料的拉伸强度有很大的影响, 而时间的影响很小. 正如预测的那样, 提高黄麻在复合材料中的重量百分比会增加吸水率.
