| description | This paper presented the research works on the investigation of
the thermal behavior of the natural fibres; i.e. pineapple leaf fibre, kenaf
fibre and mengkuang fibres reinforced epoxy. The thermogravimetric
analysis and differential scanning calorimetric analysis were used to
measure the thermal behavior of the treated and untreated pineapple, kenaf
and mengkuang fibres reinforced epoxy. The samples for both analysis
were subjected to maximum temperature 600°C at the heating rate of
10°C/min. The results showed that the treated fibres show higher
maximum peak temperature as compared to the untreated fibres.
Additionally, the glass transition temperature showed a lower value for all
treated fibre. It can be concluded that investigation of thermal properties of
these natural fibres could improve the utilization of natural fibre
composites in various applications i.e. sports applications. |
