The automotive and aeronautic industries have become strategic sectors for North African
countries. However, the future growth of these sectors will likely depend on the availability of …

The importance of creating and using green items made of natural fibers and natural fiber
composites rather than conventional goods has increased as awareness of sustainability …

A bstract Concerned about the environmental and economic impact, composite materials
are increasingly used in the construction sector. Indeed, the use of plant fibers as …

This study investigated the effects of atmospheric aging through three summer months on
the mechanical properties of polyester reinforced with different mass rates of alfa fibers …

The in-soil biodegradation of Stipa tenacissima (alfa) leaves was examined. Non-linear
mechanical testing was performed at various biodegradation stages. Tensile strength …

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) examinations show a good dispersion of
reinforcements in PLA matrix and a relatively continuous interface between components. By …

This study is part of the development of eco-materials (dune sand, clay soil and natural
fibers) for masonry and the rehabilitation of heritage in arid and semi-arid environments …

In the present work, we propose to confront two modeling techniques for predicting the
macroscopic properties of short alfa fiber-reinforced polypropylene composites. The first …

Composites reinforced with plant‐based fibers present a high potential for valorization in
new industrial applications due to their good specific mechanical characteristics …

Plaster and composites made up of gypsum have been extensively used in building for
various purposes. This work aims to study the use of polypropylene (synthetic polymer), Alfa …
