The
increasing concern over the waste reduction and health hazards associated with
the use of synthetic fibers such as glass fibers, carbon fibers, aramides and
other fibers have turned the attention towards natural ecofriendly green
fibers. In this paper natural fibers namely – milkweed fiber, agave americana
fiber and sansevieria roxburghiana fibers have been studied experimentally to
determine the physical, chemical, morphological and thermal properties by FTIR,
SEM, PLM, X-Ray Diffraction, DSC and TGA analysis methods. In this study, Sansevieria
fiber was observed to have the highest tenacity of 53.58 g/tex and showed
maximum degradation temperature of 375 oC. Milkweed fibers were
found to have the lowest density of 0.9 g/cc and possessed hollow structure
with smooth surface as observed from SEM and PLM techniques.
