Evaluation of the density, mechanical, thermal and chemical properties of babassu fibers (Attalea speciosa.) for potential composite reinforcement

The properties of babassu (Attalea speciosa.) fiber was for the first time investigated for potential engineering application such as reinforcement for matrix composites. The diameter distribution of babassu fibers was analyzed and found to be associated with significant variation in fiber density a...
