In this research, the suitability of almond shell and coconut fiber as a renewable agricultural residue for manufacturing of biocomposite to be used as a replacement of wood was investigated. The use of agriculture waste as a reinforcement in composite may result in several environmental and socioeconomic benefits. Biocomposite containing different weight percentage of almond shell particle (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt%) and coconut fiber (2, 4 and 6 wt%) mixed with 20 wt% of almond shell particles were made using epoxy resin and 0.5 wt% of Tricresyl Phosphate. Thermal stability test and morphology (SEM) of the biocomposite were determined.

W artykule przedstawiono analizę wyników badań trwałości materiałów biokompozytowych umacnianych łuskami migdałowca i włóknami kokosowymi, używanych jako zamienniki drewna. Zastosowanie odpadów rolniczych jako elementów umacniających materiały kompozytowe pozytywnie oddziałuje zarówno na środowisko naturalne, jak i kryteria ekonomiczne ich producentów. W badaniach stosowano materiały biokompozytowe o zawartości cząstek łusek migdałowca od 10 do 50% mas. oraz włókien kokosowych 2, 4 i 6% mas. Osnową wytworzonych kompozytów była żywica epoksydowa z dodatkiem fosforanu trikrezylowego 0,5% mas. Wykonano badania stabilności cieplnej wytworzonych biokompozytów oraz ich mikrostruktury przy zastosowaniu mikroskopu skaningowego SEM.
