Characterization of Natural Cellulosic Fiber from Cocos nucifera Peduncle for Sustainable Biocomposites
The aim of this research is to see whether coconut tree peduncle fiber (CTPF) can be used as a potential polymer composite reinforcement. The cellulose content (50.11 wt.%) provides a strong single fiber tensile strength (137 MPa) to CTPF, and the surface morphology shows porous surface, thereby pro...
