One of the major reasons for composite failure is a breakdown of
the bond between the reinforcement fibres and the matrix. When this
happens, the composite loses strength and fails. By engineering the
interface between the natural fibres and the matrix, the properties
of the composite can be manipulated to give maximum performance.
Interface engineering of natural fibre composites for maximum
performance looks at natural (sustainable) fibre composites and the
growing trend towards their use as reinforcements in composites.
Part one focuses on processing and surface treatments to engineer
the interface in natural fibre composites and looks in detail at
modifying cellulose fibre surfaces in the manufacture of natural
fibre composites, interface tuning through matrix modification and
preparation of cellulose nanocomposites. It also looks at the
characterisation of fibre surface treatments by infrared and raman
spectroscopy and the effects of processing and surface treatment on
the interfacial adhesion and mechanical properties of natural fibre
composites. Testing interfacial properties in natural fibre
composites is the topic of part two which discusses the
electrochemical characterisation of the interfacial properties of
natural fibres, assesses the mechanical and thermochemical
properties and moisture uptake behaviour of natural fibres and
studies the fatigue and delamination of natural fibre composites
before finishing with a look at Raman spectroscopy and x-ray
scattering for assessing the interface in natural fibre composites
With its distinguished editor and international team of
contributors Interface engineering of natural fibre composites for
maximum performance is an invaluable resource to composite
manufacturers and developers, materials scientists and engineers
and anyone involved in designing and formulating composites or in
industries that use natural fibre composites.
