<i>Opuntia</i> spp. Fibre Characterisation to Obtain Sustainable Materials in the Composites Field

Some studies have evaluated the use of <i>Opuntia</i> as reinforcement for polymeric matrices, obtaining good results in energy absorption tests and increasing the tensile elastic modulus. However, no studies focusing on the previous characterisation of the fibres and their treatment to...
