ABSTRACT

Ripe Bulrush fibers (RBFs) is one of the grass fibers that have the potential to replace synthetic fibers. This work focuses on the effect of alkalization on characterization of Ripe Bulrush fiber-reinforced composites (RBRCs). The composites are fabricated by compression molding process and the characterization techniques such as Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies, Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis, Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies have been carried out. From the results, it is found that the significant improvement in properties and more thermal stability due to the alkalization.

摘要

成熟的芦苇纤维 (RBF) 是有可能取代合成纤维的草纤维之一。这项工作的重点是碱化对成熟芦苇纤维增强复合材料 (RBRCs) 表征的影响。复合材料是通过压缩成型工艺和表征技术制造的，例如傅里叶变换红外 (FTIR) 光谱分析、X 射线衍射 (XRD) 研究、差示扫描量热法 (DSC) 分析、热重分析 (TGA) 和已经进行了扫描电子显微镜（SEM）研究。从结果中发现，由于碱化，性能和热稳定性得到显着改善。
