Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) Analysis of Chemically Treated Bagasse Fibre

Josephine Taiye Omole & Benjamin Dauda · Chemical Science International Journal · 2016

Bagasse is a natural fibre obtained as a by-product of sugarcane milling process. As with other natural fibres it has the drawback of being hydrophilic; this research seeks to explore the use of chemical modification on the fibre surface as a possible remedy to this. The chemical...
