This study was aimed at understanding the characteristics of Celosia argentea fiber (CAF) and its physicochemical properties. The physicochemical properties of CAF were analyzed by FT-IR, XRD, TGA, SEM, and AFM analysis. Cellulose content (64.34wt.%), density (843 kg/m3) and crystallinity index (52.54%) properties were identified in the CAF while the thermal studies performed by TG and DTG technique revealed that the maximum degradation temperature is 324°C with a kinetic activation energy of 61.393 kJ/mol. From the results, it is evident that the CAF could be one of the future reinforcement materials for green composites applications.
