Investigating the synergistic effect of olive trunk leaves powder and pineapple leaf fibers on the physical, tensile, and thermal properties of epoxy-based composites

The study evaluated the effect of adding different proportions (3/7, 1/1, and 7/3) of pineapple leaf fiber to composites reinforced with olive trunk leaves powder by measuring tensile properties, moisture absorption, and thermal stability. The results showed that the proportion of pineapple leaf fib...
