A Study of Fabrication Technique, Structural and Morphological Behavior of Polypropylene Reinforced with Short Natural Fiber Banana

With regard to the environmental aspect it would be very interesting if natural fibers like banana, jute, and coir could used instead of artificial synthetic products as reinforcement in some applications. Banana .Natural have many advantages compared other man made fibers. The fiber composites may everyday applications such lampshades, suitcases, paperweight, helmets, shower bath units. Polypropylene were fabricated with untreated alkali treated jute 10-25% loading by weight designated at Composite (PPBC). biodegradable (PP) reinforced short was prepared melt mixing followed hot press molding. micro structural analysis morphologies studied via infrared spectroscopy (IR) Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques respectively. extensive application is mainly due concept group vibration. Any change substitution or addition groups atoms a molecule affects relative mode vibration group. This causes IR spectral band position, intensities appearance new bands disappearance any splitting single into two more bands. Infrared can also increase utility fiber. It deals interaction light matter. former indicate presence functional qualitatively latter provide semi quantitative measure their concentrations. Electron Microscopy most widely obtain information regarding morphology surfaces, especially SEM (Scanning Microscopy). Using SEM, easy determine differences surface topography after before treatment, hence formation polymer composites. Fiber deboning observed for pp matrix composite. reveals that bonding between interface improved. These there are kinds interfacial contact treatment. magnification range from few times several hundred thousand times.
