Abstract Scope |
Natural fibers as reinforcement to composites have been increasingly used in important industrial sectors, such as automotive and civil construction. In addition to its natural advantages, these lignocellulosic materials have gradually been improved, being able to match its mechanical performance to synthetic fiber in some applications, such as the one used in the intermediate layer in individual ballistic armor. In particular, the hemp fiber (Cannabis sativa), although extensively used in fabrics, has yet scarce application in engineering polymer composites due to the highly variable mechanical properties and low thermal stability. Thus, this paper analyzed the use of graphene oxide coating on hemp fibers and compared them with the neat and NaOH treated fiber. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to thermally characterize this material along with the Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). |
