ABSTRACT

In this research work, the fibers were extracted from the leaf of the Sansevieria roxburghiana plant through a mechanical decortication process. The morphological structure of the fiber was analyzed using a scanning electron microscope and optical microscope. The chemical composition and crystallinity of the fiber were analyzed using Fourier transforms infrared, and X-ray diffraction techniques. The physical and tensile properties of the fibers were measured and compared with the cotton, sisal, and other varieties of sansevieria fibers. The average length of the fiber was around 7.6 cm and the density of the fiber was found as 1.41 g/cc. The thermal properties of the fiber were analyzed using Thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis. TGA tests showed that the fiber is stable below 220^◦C temperature. The crystallinity of the fiber was measured as 46.42%. It is understood that Sansevieria roxburghiana can be suitably considered to use as reinforcement in green composite materials and other technical textiles sectors.

摘要

在这项研究工作中，纤维是通过机械去皮过程从虎尾兰植物的叶子中提取的。使用扫描电子显微镜和光学显微镜分析纤维的形态结构。使用傅里叶变换红外和 X 射线衍射技术分析了纤维的化学成分和结晶度。测量了纤维的物理和拉伸性能，并与棉花、剑麻和其他品种的虎尾兰纤维进行了比较。纤维的平均长度约为 7.6 cm，发现纤维密度为 1.41 g/cc。使用热重 (TGA) 分析法分析纤维的热性能。TGA 测试表明，纤维在 220 ^◦以下是稳定的C 温度。纤维的结晶度测得为46.42%。据了解，虎尾兰可适当考虑用作绿色复合材料和其他产业用纺织品领域的增强材料。
