Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Nanoclay-Treated Banana Fibers
The objective of this work is to improve the thermal, mechanical and fiber-matrix adhesion properties of banana fibers using nanoclay particle infusion. The nanoclays were infused into the banana fibers by using alkaline and silane chemical treatments. The morphology and distribution of nanoclays in...
