Synopsis

The economic and ecological benefits of composites reinforced with plant fibres are encouraging the development of these materials. Indeed, the nature of the fibres encourages the promotion of an environmentally-friendly industry. However, mechanical and chemical treatments are required to extract the plant fibres and improve their adhesion and dispersion in the matrix. The main aim of this study is to analyse the properties of natural sisal fibres. Following simulations of the tensile test, it is possible to determine the impact of the fibre extraction method on its mechanical characteristics.
