Chemically Modified Banana Fiber: Structure, Dielectrical Properties and Biodegradability
摘要:
Banana fibers, as well as other lignocellulosic fibers, are constituted of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, pectin, wax and water soluble components. The abundance of this fiber combined with the ease of its processing is an attractive feature, which makes it a valuable substitute for synthetic fibers that are potentially toxic. In this work, the structure characterization of the banana fiber modified by alkaline treatment was studied. Some important properties of this fiber changed due to some chemical treatments, such as the crystalline fraction, dielectric behavior, metal removal (governed by solution pH) and biodegradation. Our results showed that treated banana fiber is a low cost alternative for metal removal in aqueous industry effluents. Thus, for regions with low resources, the biosorbents are an alternative to diminish the impact of pollution caused by local industries, besides being a biodeg
