I faced the same issue and as majority of the answers indicated, you have to apply position: sticky; and top: 0; ( mostly but can vary if there is a navbar which is fixed as well) to 'th' element. These properties do not apply to thead or tr.

One more thing, if it still doesn't work, you have to look for 'overflow' properties of the parent. If any parent component has an overflow set, i.e. overflow: hidden, then position: sticky just doesn't work. Make sure to remove all such parent properties. Chao!
