Alignment of Short Fibres: An Overview
(2017)Fibre orientation is a major factor influencing composite performance; research, largely on synthetic fibre composites, supports that the best mechanical performances are achieved in composites when fibres are aligned in ... -
Alkali treatment of hemp fibres for the production of aligned hemp fibre mats for composite reinforcement
(Springer, 2020)The main objective of this study was to produce aligned hemp fibre mats from high strength hemp fibres using dynamic sheet forming (DSF). Alkali treatment of hemp fibre was carried out at ambient and high temperature to ... -
Improving the performance of polypropylene matrix composite materials using engineered hemp fibre mats
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Projections of continuing demand for materials across the world is driving the development of more sustainable materials. The low energy consumption requirements, as well as recyclability found within the spectrum of natural ... -
Treatment of hemp fibres for use in rotational moulding
(Springer, 2021)The benefit of using alkali-treated hemp fibre as the reinforcement for rotationally moulded evaluated in this research. Untreated and alkali treated hemp fibre were characterised using different techniques such as scanning ...
