Machinability of Bio-composites: Challenges and Prospects
(2nd Conference_FLOWER Project, Advanced Biobased Materials and Composites for Engineering Applications, University of Portsmouth, England, UK, 2020-09-17)
The exceptional inherent properties of natural fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials and their bio-based hybrid counterparts have contributed to extensive engineering applications. These properties include, ...
3D Printing using Cellulose Nanoparticles
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-09-09)
Cellulose is naturally available and most abundant biopolymer on earth. It is one of the main constituents of cellulosic materials, such as wood, plant fibres (flax, hemp, jute), among others. Due to their high surface ...
3D printing and morphological characterisation of polymeric composite scaffolds
(2020-05-23)
3D-printing is an efficient method of designing customised structures and producing synthetic bone grafts appropriate for bone implants. This research aimed to manufacture a new multi-functionalised 3D-printed poly(lactic ...
Characterization of Nano-Mechanical, Surface and Thermal Properties of Hemp Fiber-Reinforced Polycaprolactone (HF/PCL) Biocomposites
(2020-04-10)
The quest for sustainable, low-cost and environmental friendly engineering materials has increased the application of natural fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite. This paper experimentally investigates the effects of ...
Characterization of Novel Lignocellulosic Spinifex littoreus Fibers and Their Composites
(2020-04-07)
This innovative work presents mechanical, physical and chemical characterization and analysis of newly extracted fiber from naturally resourced plant stem, named Spinifex littoreus fibers (SLF). This is a novel natural, ...
