Abstract

Agave tequilana crop waste provides lignocellulosic material that can be exploited through the surface treatment of the fibers, such as by soaking in acid-alkali media, which allows for the separation of water-soluble components such as pectins, sugars, and fructooligosaccharides from insoluble components such as hemicellulose and lignin fibers. This treatment also improves the properties of the fibers in terms of their thermal stability and tensile strength, which is necessary for developing composites because it allows for the removal of impurities such as waxes, pectin, and minerals, increasing the fibers’ surface area (Ben Sghaier et al. 2012; Rosli et al. 2013). The objective of this research was to characterize lignocellulose fibers from A. tequilana Weber by calorimetric and thermogravimetric techniques.
