• Sugarcane is a natural plant fibre, which is collect from the sugarcane plant.

• Mainly sugarcane fiber is called the “bagasse “

Bagasse is the fibrous material that remains after sugarcane are crushed to exact their juice from sugarcane. It is dry pulp residue left after the extraction of juice from sugarcane

• Crystallinity : between 63 % - 68%

• Fibre fineness : according to maturity level.

• Moisture absorption : no chance 13% - 18% (no chance )

• Elastic recovery : 50 % - 60%

• Torsional rigidity : varies between maturity lavel

• Flexural rigidity : 0.015 g/𝑐𝑚2 to 0.032 g/𝑐𝑚2

Component Percent

Cellulose 45-55%

Hemicellulose 20-25%

Lignin 18-24%

Ash 1-4%

Fracture surface of unirradiated cement fibre composite with (a) 0% (b) 6% and (c) irradiated cement composite with 6% of SBR content.

Results were also analyzed by varying density of sugarcane fibre with different compositions.

At first juice are extract from the sugarcane

After extraction of juice the bagasse are

collected for extraction of fibre

The soft core part pith is removed from the

bagasse manually to get outer hard ring

The samples are then taken into hot

water treatment

The samples are then dried in the

sunlight

Then these samples are in the

chemical treatment

After chemicals treatment the fibres are

separated

Sugarcane producing areas in the world

Bangladesh in sugarcane producing is

self sufficient

Rangpur,Rajshshi,Mymensingh

,Khulna, jessore, kushtia,faridpur is the

major sugarcane producing area
