Agave lechuguilla Torrey fiber as reinforcement of polyester resin
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract This study was aimed to evaluate the application of lechuguilla fiber (Agave lechuguilla Torrey), with no treatment, as reinforcement of polyester resin. Mechanical assays and pull‐out tests were performed on specimens of one fiber and strands of 10 fibers and on lechuguilla fiber/polyester composites and polyester matrix alone. The results indicated that there was no important improvement in composite rigidity, as the Young's modulus in both the fiber and the polyester resin were similar; however, an important improvement in composite resistance, in respect to the matrix alone, attributed to a good interfacial adherence fiber‐matrix, was observed.
