Among the natural fibers, jute stands out for its characteristics. However, adhesion between fibers and polymer matrix is limited and, therefore, physicochemical changes to fiber surface are required. In this paper, effects of treatments on were analyzed. We found alkaline treatment be most widespread use chemical agents allows a greater addition matrices. Nevertheless, these produce lot waste, increase cost production, toxic compounds. An environmentally friendly alternative application...
This study addresses the fabrication of extruded films using poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and chitosan, with without maleic anhydride as a compatibilizing agent, for potential applications in disposable food packaging. These underwent controlled conditions UV irradiation, water condensation, temperature variations an accelerated weathering chamber. The investigation analyzed effect different exposure periods on structural, morphological, mechanical, thermal properties films. It was observed that...
The extensive use of petroleum-based plastics has led to serious environmental problems worldwide. A viable alternative is replace these polymers with those that are biodegradable. Polylactic acid (PLA) a biodegradable polymer properties similar polymers. However, it some drawbacks such as brittleness, poor impact strength, low heat distortion, and difficulties in thermal stability during processing. In this study, we describe the modified jute fibres reinforce PLA matrix order improve its...
El aprovechamiento de residuos agroindustriales es una opción que beneficia al medio ambiente. Durante la elaboración productos con fibras tejidas yute (FTY) se generan fragmentos, los cuales no tienen un uso específico. En este trabajo, propone utilización FTY como material refuerzo en láminas ácido poliláctico (PLA), alternativa ecológica y sustentable obtener biocompuestos biodegradables a bajo costo puedan sustituir plásticos provenientes del petróleo. Con el objetivo mejorar...
Due to the increase in generation of municipal solid waste and its impact on environment health, governments have been overburdened by impact. Therefore, they developed initiatives for disposal options which citizens are involved. For that reason, this article aims identify population sector participates separation goes collection centers, as well characterize three points known Reciclacentros city Hermosillo, Sonora. purpose, surveys were applied, selecting respondents a non-probabilistic...
