Recently, due to increased environmental concerns, scientists and technologists have placed great importance on the application of natural fibres, especially in biocomposites. The sugar palm tree is one of the most popular natural fibres used in engineering applications. A study on the fundamental properties of fibres from different morphological parts of the sugar palm plant, which are bunch, black sugar palm fibre, locally known as ijuk, trunk and frond was carried out in order to evaluate their potential as eventual raw materials for reinforced polymer composites. From this study, it wasd found that sugar palm frond (SPF) gives the highest tensile strength compared to the other parts, which is 421.4 N/mm2. The tensile strength for sugar palm bunch (SPB), ijuk and sugar palm trunk (SPT) is 365.1, 276.6 and 198.3 N/mm2, respectively. These results have been proven using those for their chemical compositions, where the highest cellulose content was obtained from SPF (66.5%), followed by SPB (61.8%), ijuk (52.3%), and SPT (40.6%). For water absorption testing, it was found that SPF also gave the highest percentage - 132.8%, followed by SPB, ijuk and SPT. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used in order to detect the presence of functional groups existing in sugar palm fibre.

W ostatnich lata zwraca się szczególną uwagę na zastosowanie włókien naturalnych w biokompozytach. Pień palmy cukrowej wykorzystywany jest powszechnie do uzyskiwania włókien mających zastosowanie w aplikacjach inżynierskich. Przeprowadzono badanie właściwości włókien pochodzących z różnych części pnia dla określenia możliwości ich zastosowania jako surowca używanego do wzmacniania kompozytów. Określono części pnia palmy wykazujące największą wytrzymałość właściwą na zerwanie rzędu 198 do 365 N/mm2, najwyższą zawartość celulozy rzędu 40 - 66% i absorpcję wody rzędu 133%. Fourierowską spektroskopie podczerwieni (FT-IR) zastosowano w celu wykrycia obecności grup funkcyjnych występujących we włóknach palmy cukrowej.
