Although Natural Fibres have various potential and advantages such as lower in weight, embodied energy and toxicity but their drawbacks are provided relentless competition between natural and synthetics fibres. Intrinsically, Natural Fibres are hydrophilic that is leaded to poor resistance to moisture and incompatible to hydrophobic polymer matrix. This incompatibility of natural fibres results in poor fibre/matrix interface which in turn leads to reduce mechanical properties of the composites. This study try to litreature some methods of chemical treatment or surface modification of Natural Fibres for improving this drawback of natural fibres. The objective of this research is fungi treatment as Green Surface Treatment that is indicate to environmental friendlier process. The use of fungi can provide low cost, highly efficient and environmentally friendly alternatives to natural fibre surface treatment.

AbstractSurface energies of carbon fibres at different levels at surface treatment have been determined by a wetting force technique and related to fibre-matrix adhesion in carbon fibre reinforced PEEK composite. The effect of oxidative surface treatment on the surface free energy is detailed, along with the changes in surface oxygen and nitrogen content, as determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The work of adhesion has been calculated for the carbon fibres and thermoplastic, which correlate well with experimental determination of interfacial strength. The technique can therefore be used to predict adhesion levels in fibre reinforced composites.

Due to the increasing discussion about sustainable and CO2-reduced materials, the demand for cellulose-based fibres as a reinforcing component in thermoplastic composites has increased considerably. Knowledge about the possibilities of modifying fibres for improved adhesion to the plastic matrix is essential in this context. The fibre/matrix adhesion in cellulose fibre-reinforced polymers is of considerable importance for the design of composite materials. Unfortunately, there are no standards for many essential methods to determine fibre/matrix adhesion. In this review article, various methods for measuring the interfacial shear strength between fibres and matrix, as an indirect characterisation of adhesion, are presented. Additionally, a brief overview of different methods for surface modification of cellulose fibres to improve the adhesion to a thermoplastic matrix is given. This review focuses on the fact that the parameters for the production of test specimens as well as the test method itself can vary considerably from study to study. Because of this, the comparison of data from different publications is not always possible. Therefore, in this article, the main influencing factors and differences in the methods are presented and discussed. Based on a systematic review and a clear description and discussion of the methods, the reader is given a broad basis for a better understanding of characteristic values for fibre/matrix adhesion.

The influence of the ultrasonic treatment of block copolymer solution on its solid-liquid interface behavior was investigated in detail. The surface modification of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in aqueous dispersions of specially tailor-made periodic acrylic acid/isobutylene copolymer by ultrasonic treatment was studied in order to get new approaches for the creation of hybrid composite materials or polymer coatings. The pigment surface modification by the above copolymer was comparatively investigated regarding conventional adsorption as contrasted to an ultrasonic treatment assisted procedure. The course and efficiency of the polymer adsorption onto the pigment surface were quantified by electrokinetic sonic amplitude measurements. The higher efficiency of the pigment surface coating by the copolymer as achieved by ultrasonic treatment in comparison to conventional adsorption is a consequence of ultrasonically induced pigment surface activation. Two perspective avenues of the utilization of the discovered effects for creation of organic-inorganic composite materials are anticipated: the nanoparticles could first be treated by ultrasound in the presence of polymers and so create a surface modifying coating and the second option is an entrainment of the nanoparticles into the monomer matrix which can be polymerized afterward yielding a polymer with immobilized nanoparticles.
