ABSTRACT

Banana is a crop that is primarily cultivated for its fruit, mainly in the tropical countries of the world. After harvesting, nearly 60% of its biomass including pseudostems are being left as a waste. Due to the favorable mechanical and chemical characteristics of the fiber extracted from different parts of this crop, various products could be produced by utilizing the banana fiber. This review paper focuses on the products that have been developed from banana fiber as a source of natural fiber. Also, it is being discussed as a reinforcement for polymeric materials in novel applications in different industrial levels.

生物废物管理：利用香蕉纤维进行产品开发

摘要

香蕉是一种主要为其果实种植的作物，主要在世界热带国家。收获后，包括假茎在内的近 60% 的生物质被当作废物留下。由于从该作物不同部位提取的纤维具有良好的机械和化学特性，利用香蕉纤维可以生产各种产品。这篇评论文章重点介绍了从香蕉纤维作为天然纤维来源开发的产品。此外，它正在讨论作为聚合物材料在不同工业水平的新应用中的增强材料。
