Abstract

Biomaterials and green products rely heavily on natural lignocellulosic fibres. They have a wide variety of potential capabilities and characteristics, making them suitable for many applications. These fibres offer all the components required for renewable energy deployment. Fibre polymers from Jharkhand such as palm, datura, lemon, and mustard were studied for their thermal, mechanical, and interfacial adhesion properties. There were also tests on tensile strength, elongation to break, and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). The effects of heating on weight loss, water loss, and disintegration have also been studied. A comparison was made between frequently used global fibres and the fibres analysed in this research article. Jharkhand’s fibres are shown to be more compromising than worldwide fibres. Palm fibres have excellent tensile strength (160 MPa) and modulus of elasticity (5 GPa). The thermal behaviour of lemon and datura fibres is the most similar. Palm and mustard fibres respond similarly in warm temperatures. At 140°C and 240°C, mass loss was 18.8 and 24.3%, respectively. TGA shows that the studied fibres are more suited for industrial applications owing to their stable thermal behaviour. Plastics, textiles, packaging, and papers may all use palm fibres in insulators, circuit boards, switches, and terminals, as well as in furniture and window frames.

Highlights

  • New bio-product materials have been created to reduce dependency on petroleum commodities, potentially leading to sustainable green products and cleaner manufacturing [1]

  • In order to ensure long-term sustainability, the government has recognised the importance of available natural resources, their proper utilisation, and waste management, which has resulted in the development of better schemes, Optimum Composite Structures - Recent Advances, New Perspectives and Applications regulations, and promotions for natural bio-based materials, such as natural fibre composites (NFCs)

  • This study presents a fresh approach to researching natural fibres accessible in India’s Jharkhand area, lignocellulosic fibres, and testing their mechanical and environmental behaviour from a variety of technical perspectives

Summary

Introduction

New bio-product materials have been created to reduce dependency on petroleum commodities, potentially leading to sustainable green products and cleaner manufacturing [1]. Automotive, agriculture, construction, packaging, aerospace, and other industries have recently embraced natural fibre composites to replace conventional materials [3]. Green commodities generated from agricultural waste would open the way for new renewable resources while providing a source of revenue for many developing nations [4]. To develop new types of biomaterials that are ecologically friendly [5–7] They might be regarded a wonderful solution for reinforcement from an environmental and economic standpoint. They are more ecologically friendly, lighter, and require less energy, making them more sustainable from a sustainability aspect. While designing green goods, mechanical and chemical qualities are the only two factors that are taken into account to a higher degree, since there is a correlation between natural fibre’s chemical properties and their equal mechanical performance [8, 9]
