Effect of Alkali-treatment on Structural, Thermal, Tensile Properties of Dichrostachys Cinerea Bark Fiber and Its Composites

The effect of alkali-treatment of the chemical composition, structure, thermal stability, tensile strength, and surface topology of dichrostachys cinerea bark fibers (DCFs) was analyzed by Chemical analysis, XRD, FTIR, TGA, SEM, and AFM in this investigation. The alkali treatment of raw DCFs with 5%...
