Tensile and flexural properties of epoxy laminates with natural papaya bast fibre cellular layers
This work focuses on the fabrication and characterisation of epoxy composites reinforced with natural fibre layers extracted from the inner bast (phloem) of the papaya plant (Carica papaya) under tensile and three-point bending loading. The papaya phloem is composed of fibrous laminas that wrap and...
