Elaboration and Charpy Test of Bioplastics Reinforced by Renewable Fibers: Starch /Diss

Abstract:

This work is based on an investigation study to develop bio-composite materials that are renewable, biodegradable, and environmentally safe. The fibers used in this work are extracted from the plant Ampelodesma Mauritanica, It is a wild plant that is produced in abundance in the Mediterranean regions. Through this work, an overview of Diss fibers was provided, developing bio-composite using different starch matrices reinforced by Diss fibers, and evaluate their mechanical behavior using Charpy-tests to determine standard test specimens to estimate Weibull parameters suitable for the composite using statistical methods based on Weibull distribution. The obtained results, it was found that the bio-composite starch/Diss 40% Glycerol and 5% fiber reinforcement (SG40/RF5) had better results compared to the rest of the bio-composite, The Charpy impact energy modulus was about 31.25 (KJ/m2), which is 2.1 times higher than that achieved Measured from SG40 matrix (40% glycerol), and 1.3 times higher than those fortified with 10% fiber SG40/RF10 (40% glycerol reinforcement 10% fiber), and the statistical study confirmed the distribution of the results obtained, especially Weibull, which has three parameters.
