TENSILE PROPERTIES OF RAMIE FIBER REINFORCED EPOXY COMPOSITES

Vol/Issue: Volume 1, Issue 2  •  Pages: 1-5  •  Published: 30 Nov 2016

The tensile properties of randomly oriented short fiber lengths from agricultural based plant stems ramie fiber/epoxy composites are described for the first time in this work. Composites were fabricated using raw ramie fibers with varying fiber weight percent’s viz. 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45wt. %. The tensile parameter s…

MODELING LIQUID WATER ABSORPTION OF UNTREATED UKAM FIBER DURING SOAKING

Vol/Issue: Volume 1, Issue 1  •  Pages: 1-10  •  Published: 29 Feb 2016

The research addresses the hydrophilic behaviors of the natural ukam plant fiber material at various studied conditions. The aim of this work was to reveal the possibilities to model the liquid water absorption characteristics of untreated ukam fiber which assists in optimizing soaking conditions. Liquid water absor…
