Abstract
  Various fiber-matrix combinations were used to create biodegradable composites using sugar cane bagasse (SCB) fiber and a polyester resin (PES) matrix. SEM, FTIR, mechanical testing, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and the method of soil burial were employed to assess the effects of the fiber content ...  Read More

Volume 8, Issue 1 , January 2017, , Pages 71-87

https://doi.org/10.5829/idosi.ijee.2017.08.01.13

Abstract
  This study concentrates on pelletization of powdered corn cob  and wheat dust with 40% Epoxy binder. Two cylindrical pellets of different sizes and a new hexagonal one were investigated in this work. By densification process, the bulk density increased 8-10 times, having its maximum value fora hexagonal ...  Read More
