Effect of Alkalization on Physical, Chemical, Morphological and Mechanical Properties of Arial Root Ficus Amplissima Fibre

Natural fiber’s hydrophilic property leads to reduced bond strength for its incompatibility with the matrix. This problem can be sorted out by treating the surface of the fiber. In this connection, the chemical, physical, thermal, and surface morphological properties of alkali-treated Arial root Fic...
