Effect of alkaline treatment on structural characterisation, thermal degradation and water absorption ability of coir fibre polymer composites
The alkaline treatment with 5 wt. % sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution at room temperature for 24 and 48 h was performed on coir fibre. The structural characterisation, thermal degradation and water absorption ability of the untreated and NaOH-treated coir fibre polymer composites have been studied. S...
