In addition, several characterization techniques (i.e., thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and thermal mechanical analysis (TMA)) were used to better understand the characteristics of the new composites prepared. With these techniques, we managed to verify the rigidity and thermal stability of the composites so elaborated, as well as the success of the polymer and the structural homogeneity of the obtained biocomposites. Hence, the biocomposite with the best ratio (HDPE\/20WF) showed a loss modulus (E\u2033) of 224 MPa, a storage modulus (E\u2032) of 2079 MPa, and a damping factor (Tan\u03b4) of 0.270 to the glass transition (Tg) of 145 \u00b0C. In addition, thermomechanical analysis (TMA) of the biocomposite samples exhibited marginally higher Ts compared to the HDPE matrix. The best results were recorded with biocomposites with 20% WF, which showed better thermal properties. This composite material can be used as insulation in construction materials (buildings, false ceilings, walls, etc.).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym15132910","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,3]],"date-time":"2023-07-03T00:42:46Z","timestamp":1688344966000},"page":"2910","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":46,"title":["Effect of Fiber Loading on Thermal Properties of Cellulosic Washingtonia Reinforced HDPE Biocomposites"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Safieddine","family":"Bahlouli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Abbes Laghrour University, Khenchela 40000, Algeria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6059-3974","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ahmed","family":"Belaadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Technology, University 20 Ao\u00fbt 1955-Skikda, El-Hadaiek Skikda 21000, Algeria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3950-4375","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Azzedine","family":"Makhlouf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Abbes Laghrour University, Khenchela 40000, Algeria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7903-3208","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hassan","family":"Alshahrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical Engineering, College of Engineering, Najran University, Najran 1988, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Scientific and Engineering Research Centre, Deanship of Scientific Research, Najran University, Najran 1988, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad K.
