The Design of Plant Fibres as Biomimetic Composites
Resumo
As fibras vegetais, que se baseiam em estruturas lignocelulósicas, apresentam-se como compósitos biomiméticos, no sentido de que apresentam uma relação complexa entre uma matriz mais macia e um reforço mais duro por meio de uma interface, com uso contínuo de porosidades e arranjos celulares. Porém, as fibras podem ser extraídas de diferentes partes da planta de acordo com a espécie, na prática do caule, da casca, do fruto, da folha ou mesmo da semente. Existe uma relação entre a região das fibras e sua estrutura, que este trabalho pretende discutir, apresentando uma grande variedade de fibras, geometrias e colocações na própria planta.
