The aerial root of Ficus benjamina L. was reinforced with polyester-based bio-composites that were fabricated using the manual lay-up cum compression method. The composite's mechanical, thermal, and fractographical properties were investigated using tensile, hardness, impact, water absorption, thermo gravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy analysis. Mechanical behaviors of the composites are enhanced by up to 30% when the weight percentage of Ficus benjamina L. root fiber (FBRF) is utilized. A significant decrease occurs at these values as the fiber content rises. The composite's hardness is proportional to the fiber loading. Thermo gravimetric anaylsis shows that FBRF addition raises the transition temperature, while pure composites lower it. The composites had an excellent water absorption property, compatible, and strong. Tensile fractograph exhibited homogeneous dispersion and increased fiber adherence at 30 wt. %. The findings show the potential of FBRF and their green composite applicability.

The chemical, physical, thermal, and morphology analysis of Caesalpinia bonducella seed shell powder (CBSSP) has been conducted for behavior investigation. CBSSP has a high availability of cellulose (61.26 wt.%) from the chemical analysis and also contains minimum contents of hemi cellulose (13.74 wt.%), lignin (12.59 wt.%), wax (0.52 wt.%), ash (8.61 wt.%) and moisture (3.28 wt.%). The X-ray diffraction analysis calculated the crystallinity index as 23.04% and crystalline size as 4.745 nm of CBSSP. CBSSP was probative to surface morphology investigation by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The thermogravimetric study (TGA) of the CBSSP shows a kinetic energy activation of 66.32 kJ/mol with temperature consistency as high as 225 degrees C, implying the substance could be used as a material filler for thermoplastic resins that perform well at temperatures for processing. Mechanical testing results of CBSSP/Epoxy composite plates revealed that 9 wt.% CBSSP reinforced CBSSP/Epoxy composite plates have improved tensile strength (38.73 MPa), flexural strength (64.41 MPa), and impact strength (4.57 GPa). The results of the specified behavior features of filler could be employed in developing reinforced epoxy composites.
