Chemical modification of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane on mechanical and thermal properties
Salmah, Husseinsyah, Prof. Madya Dr. Ir.; Faisal, Amri; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr. (Taylor & Francis Group, 2011-01)Chitosan was used as filler in polypropylene (PP) polymer. In order to improve compatibility between chitosan and PP, chitosan was chemically modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APE). The results show that the ... -
Effects of dynamic vulcanization on thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer composites
Siti Rohana, Ahmad; Salmah, Husseinsyah, Prof. Madya Dr. Ir.; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr. (Universiti Putra Malaysia Press, 2010-07)In this study, dynamic vulcanization process was used to improve the thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled composites. The composites were prepared using a Z-blade mixer at 180°C and rotor speed 50rpm. Thermogravimetric ... -
Mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of chitosan filled polypropylene composites: The effect of binary modifying agents
Faisal, Amri; Salmah, Husseinsyah, Prof. Madya Dr. Ir.; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr. (Elsevier B.V., 2013)This work investigates the effects of the binary modifying agents-organosolv lignin and acrylic acid, on the mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites. We analyse the mechanical and ...
