-In present days, automobile industries are rapidly increased. All the automobile industries are in the process of supplying the vehicles at low cost. The major cost of the automobile components is its body parts. As per the European Union and Asian countries automotive components end life is very important factor in the design of the automotive. So everybody is concentrating on new materials w...

Natural coir fibers, subjectd to thermal treatments in the range of 0oC to 200oC and alkali treatment with 5% to 30% concentration w/w, have been used in the present investigation to determine the interlayer variability of the cellulose planes (020), (110) and (110). Among the equatorial reflections (110), (110) and (020), the extent of variability is found to be more with the proportion of suc...

In the past, asbestos siding, roofing, and ceiling sheets became more popular than conventional materials due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, durability, low cost. However, it was later identified that most types of are carcinogenic responsible for major lethal diseases. terms developing a substitute asbestos, different alternative organic fibers have been investigated as sustainable so...

As a type of natural fiber with excellent elongation, coir has been applied in wide range fields. To ensure superb performance, is usually treated alkali before being applied. Previous studies paid little attention to the multiple treatment fiber; however, this study focuses on its influence mechanical properties and conducts multi-objective optimization analysis tensile strength, elastic modul...
