Exploiting the Amazonian Açaí Palm Leaves Potential as Reinforcement for Cement Composites through Alkali and Bleaching Treatments

Exploiting the Amazonian Açaí Palm Leaves Potential as Reinforcement for Cement Composites through Alkali and Bleaching Treatments

Recent investigations proposed alternatives for utilization of Açaí (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) fruit wastes, seeds, and lignocellulosic fibers. However, Açaí leaves may also be obtained without harvesting the palms and could be used in higher value-added products. Alkali reaction (1% and 5% of NaOH),...
