Effect of surface treatments on the dynamic mechanical behavior of piassava fiber–polyester matrix composites
The effect of several fiber surface treatments upon the dynamic mechanical behavior of piassava fiber-reinforced composites was evaluated. In the light of the experimental results obtained the critical volume ...

Thermal analysis of less common lignocellulose fibers
The thermal behavior of four unusual lignocellulose fibers — namely Caroa, Curaua, Piassava and Sponge gourd — is described. Caroa and Curaua fibers showed a more homogeneous thermal degradation, with a single...
