Acoustic properties of agroforestry waste orange pruning fibers reinforced polypropylene composites as an alternative to laminated gypsum boards

Reixach, R.; Rey Tormos, Romina María del; Alba Fernández, Jesús; Arbat, G.; Espinach, F. X.; Mutjé, P. (Elsevier, 2015-02-15)

The present paper investigates the acoustic properties of natural fiber reinforced composites. Fibers from orange tree pruning were obtained and subject to different treatments in order to obtain mechanical, thermomechanical ...
Estimation of the interfacial shears strength, orientation factor and mean equivalent intrinsic tensile strength in old newspaper fiber/polypropylene composites

Serrano, A.; Espinach, F. X.; Julian, F.; Rey Tormos, Romina María del; Mendez, J. A.; Mutje, P. (Elsevier, 2013-07)

The present paper investigates the suitability of old newspapers (ONPs) as a source of reinforcing fibers for composite materials. Different percentages of ONP fibers were compounded with polypropylene (PP). A coupling ...
Macro and micromechanics analysis of short fiber composites stiffness: The case of old newspaper fibers-polypropylene composites

Serrano, A.; Espinach, F. X.; Tresserras, José; Rey Tormos, Romina María del; Pellicer, Neus; Mutje Pujol, Pere (Elsevier, 2014-03)

Stiffness is one of the most relevant characteristics of composite materials. Natural wood fibers have demonstrated their ability to increase the Young's moduli of composite materials, and old newspapers are a potential ...
