morphological, mechanical, and multifunctional properties of sugar cane bagasse/polyester composites

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 (9-54 wt%), pla (1-5.5 wt%), starch (1-5.5 wt%), and fiber treatment on the morphology of the surface, flexural, thermal, tensile as well as biodegradable qualities of polyester/sugar cane bagasse fiber biocomposites. the outcomes demonstrated that the optimal tensile strength of biocomposites, impact, and flexural capabilities were attained by the 37 wt% treated sugar cane bagasse fibers. tensile, flexural, and impact strength measurements for the 9, 18, 27, 37, 45, and 54 wt% biocomposites, respectively, ranged from 10.21 to 18.00, 21.33 to 28.12, and 12.21 to 15.67 mpa. the results show that sugarcane bagasse-polyester composites demonstrated acceptable mechanical and multifunctional properties. this portrays the effectiveness of sugarcane bagasse as reinforcement for polyester matrix and its potential for eco-friendly fabrication of components.
