Preparation and Characteristics of Biocomposites Based on Steam Exploded Sisal Fiber Modified with Amphipathic Epoxidized Soybean Oil Resin
Sisal fiber was pretreated by continuous screw extrusion steam explosion to prepare steam exploded sisal fiber (SESF) preforms. An amphipathic bio-based thermosetting resin with poor mechanical properties was cured by epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) and citric acid (CA). The obtained resin was used to...
