Looking for making a noble green composite (nano-biocomposite) by sponge-gourd (Luffa cylindrica) natural fiber, where PLA will be used as a matrix material.
Our research group focussed on the luffa cylindrica reinforced epoxy composites. As per my knowledge, it can also be used in PLA for fabricating composite samples. Please refer to our published paper for further details.
1. A study of filler content influence on dynamic mechanical and thermal characteristics of coir and luffa cylindrica reinforced hybrid composites
2. Influence of Filler on Mechanical and Di-electric Properties of Coir and Luffa Cylindrica Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Hybrid Composites
I've already published some articles regarding composite made by luffa fiber along with PLA. But these are not nano composite. I want to know the possibility to making nano composite.
