Manufacturing of Epoxy Composites Incorporated with Buriti Fibers and Evaluation of Thermogravimetric Behavior

Article Preview

Abstract:

The thermal resistance of natural fibers is a relevant property for technical application associated with relatively high temperature levels. In polymer composites manufacturated with natural fibers the resistance to thermal degradation may become a critical factor not only with respect to processing temperature but also in-service heating operational conditions. In the present work, epoxy composites incorporated with up to 30 vol% of fibers extracted from the petiole of the buriti palm tree were manufactured and evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis, by means of the TG, and its derivative, DTG, curves from room temperature to 700°C. The results showed thermal resistances above 200°C for both the isolated buriti fibers and its manufactured composites.
