摘要

This study explores the production process and mechanical properties of biocomposites reinforced with pineapple leaf fibres. The biocomposite fabrication involves the use of various techniques, including compression moulding, to integrate the natural fibres into a polyester matrix. The mechanical performance of the resulting composites is evaluated through a comprehensive set of tests, including tensile strength measurements and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDX). Key factors influencing mechanical behaviour, such as fibre content, orientation, and production variables, are systematically examined. Additionally, the chemical composition of the composites is assessed to understand its role in their performance. The findings provide valuable insights into the potential applications of pineapple leaf fibre-based biocomposites in industries requiring lightweight, sustainable materials with enhanced mechanical properties. This paper aims to establish a clear link between production techniques and mechanical performance, highlighting the practical potential of these biocomposites for environmentally-conscious material solutions.
