In this study, conventional long ramie fiber was stretch-broken into short fibers with lengths of 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, and 50 mm. Then, these stretch-broken fibers were processed in a cotton spinning system. The results show that, compared to long ramie fibers processed in a conventional ramie spinning system, the stretch-broken fibers, with reasonable fiber length and high length uniformity, can be processed in a cotton spinning system with high efficiency and generally have better resultant yarn quality. For all of the stretch-broken yarns, the yarn processed from fiber with 40 mm length shows the best comprehensive performance.

AbstractA durability study of a ramie fiber fabric reinforced phenolic resin (RFRP) plate under 50%, 85%, and 98% relative humidity for 6 months at room temperature was performed. Water absorption and desorption, tensile and short beam shear strengths of the RFRP plates were investigated as a function of exposure time. RFRP samples show strong hydrophilic characteristics and the saturated water content varies from 0.73% to 4.5% with relative humidity ranging from 50% to 98%. After 6 months of exposure to 98% relative humidity, an abnormal extra amount of moisture was absorbed, which may have resulted from cracks in the resin matrix or from debonding between fiber and resin due to swelling of the fibers with high moisture content. It was found that the tensile modulus is more susceptible to moisture uptake, which is ascribed to the degradation of ramie fibers with the water ingress. An approximate linearity between the mechanical properties and the moisture content is observed if the abnormal extra water uptake is neglected. Both tensile and short beam shear strengths of the RFRP samples recovered remarkably when samples were fully dried at 60°C, indicating a low degree of permanent degradation occurred due to the exposure.

Natural fiber reinforced polypropylene composites (NF/PP) have attracted a lot of attention because of their light weight, good mechanical properties, recyclable and environmental friendly features. This work has successfully fabricated ramie fiber reinforced polypropylene composites (RF/PP) with a hybrid method of melt-blending and injection molding. Different RF/PP eco-materials have been fabricated by varying the fiber length, fiber content and way of fiber pre-treatment. This paper studied the mechanical properties of the fabricated RF/PP composites in depth by investigating the mechanical behaviors of RF/PP and microstructures of the ruptured surfaces. The results show that the increases of fiber length and fiber content can improve the tensile strength, flexural strength and compression strength apparently, but result in negative influences on the impact strength and elongation behaviors of RF/PP composites. The optimal addition amount of ramie fiber is around 20 wt%. The pre-treatment of ramie fiber in 10%~15% NaOH is good to the mechanical properties of RF/PP. The fiber length can be varied in the range of 3-8 mm. It is expected that the fabricated RF/PP composites can be applied to automobile industry as environmental friendly eco-materials.

In order to test whether the crystallinity and orientation of ramie fibers have changed after they are treated by the lattice distortion modification processing technology, this paper does some experiments on it. Firstly, process ramie fibers by the lattice distortion modification processing equipment. Then use X-ray diffraction method to determine the crystallinity and orientation of pristine and modified ramie fibers. Finally analyse the effect of lattice distortion modification processing on the lattice structure of ramie fiber. The experimental results show that the lattice structure of ramie fiber has changed after modification processing, with crystallinity, grain size decreasing obviously and orientation slight descent, which make ramie fibers appear softer and more puffy from macrocosmic perspective.

Ramie is a kind of natural fibers, it requires degumming process before it can be used as a raw material for various applications. The traditional treatment uses alkali, which is not an environmentally friendly process. In this paper, ramie fibers are degummed using sodium percarbonate, which causes no any negative environmental problems, and its decomposition, hydrogen peroxide, is a clear liquid, it can be used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent and antiseptics for surface treatment of ramie fibers. Effect of temperature and concentration of sodium percarbonate on the degumming process are studied theoretically and verified experimentally. Finally an optimal degumming process is suggested for maximal weight ratio of degummed ramie fiber to raw bast.

In order to determine the relationship between the fiber properties of the yarn quality in the article, experiments were conducted using a passive method of mathematical planning and a regression equation was obtained for each optimal parameter. Based on the experiments, it was found that a decrease in fiber micronaire, an increase in tensile strength, fiber length and uniformity, leads to an increase in the specific tensile strength of yarn, a decrease in the coefficient of variation in tensile strength and the number of breaks in the yarn.

Vegetable fibers are excellent substitutes for manmade fibers because are biodegradables, resistant and sustentables. This article studied the potencial application of Carica Papaya Fibers (CPF) in polymerics composites of natural resin. A simple model of micromechanical analysis was used for prediction of breaking stress, strain and Young’s modulus in composites with short fibers of Carica Papaya with matrix of polyurethane resin obtained from Ricinus Communis vegetable. The fiber content used between 10–35% and fiber length between 3–6%. The analyzes were performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) to assess the influence of variables on the mechanical properties of each composite produced. The results obtained show that increased in fiber length promoted increase in stress values, while the increase in fiber content favored the increased in the stiffness of the composite.

In this paper, the microstructure of “Saffil”-Al2O3 short fiber reinforced Al-Mg5.5 metal matrix composite material is simulated by computer. In the simulation it is taken into account of that the lengths, diameters, orientations, and locations of short fibers, etc. For the 3-D randomly distributed short fibers in composite materials, the typical distributions of short fiber microstructures on different planes are obtained for different short fiber volume fractions. The microstructural effects of average fiber length, diameter and their standard deviations on the overall strength of metal matrix composite materials are analyzed. From the short fiber microstructural distribution in metal matrix composite materials, the short fiber diameter coefficient ξd and short fiber length coefficient ξ1 are obtained for different standard deviations σd and σl, respectively. The short fiber orientation coefficient ξa is obtained, also. The results of these coefficients may be useful to the manufacture and use of short fiber reinforced composite materials. Considering these coefficients ξa ξd and ξl, the improved formula is given for the direct calculation of overall strength of short fibers reinforced composite materials. The improved formula may reflect the microstructural characteristics of short fibers reinforced composite materials.
