Tensile properties of polypropylene/cocoa pod husk biocomposites: Effect of maleated polypropylene
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Polypropylene/Cocoa Pod Husk (PP/CPH) biocomposites with different maleated polypropylene (MAPP) content were prepared via melt blending process using Brabender Plastrograph mixer. The tensile strength and tensile modulus ...
Modified cocoa pod husk-filled polypropylene composites by using methacrylic acid
(North Carolina State University, 2013-08)
The effect of filler modification using methacrylic acid (MAA) on polypropylene (PP)/cocoa pod husk (CPH) composites was studied. The performances of unmodified and modified PP/CPH composites were analyzed for torque ...
The flexural and impact properties of kenaf-polypropylene composites filled with montmorillonite filler
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC., 2012-01)
Kenaf- Polypropylene composites filled with montmorillonite (MMT) filler were produced. The incorporation of MMT had improved the flexural and impact properties. Addition of compatibilizer, had improved the flexural and ...
Polypropylene/natural rubber composites filled with recycled newspaper: Effect of chemical treatment using maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2012-04)
A study on effect of chemical treatment using maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAPP) and 3-aminopropyltiethoxysilane (3-APE) was investigated. The performance of the MAPP and 3-APE were investigated by means of ...
Mechanical properties, water absorption, and swelling behaviour of rice husk powder filled polypropylene/recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (pp/nbrr/rhp) biocomposites using silane as a coupling agent
(North Carolina University, 2011-11)
The performance of rice husk powder (RHP) filled polypropylene (PP)/recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr) biocomposites with and without coupling agent, γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APS), were investigated. The ...
Properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of acetic acid
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC, 2012-01)
The main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of chitosan content and chemical modification with acetic acid on mechanical and thermal properties of PP/Chitosan. It was found that the tensile strength, ...
Effects of maleic anhydride polypropylene on tensile, water absorption, and morphological properties of recycled newspaper filled polypropylene/natural rubber composites
(SAGE Publications, 2010)
This study focused on the effects of maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAPP) on tensile, water absorption, and morphological properties of recycled newspaper (RNP) filled polypropylene (PP)/natural rubber (NR) ...
Polypropylene/Nanosilica composites: The effect of polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride compatibiliser and amino silane coupling agent
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
This work is related to composites of polypropylene filled nanosilica with using two types of
surface modifier which are polypropylene-grafted-maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA) as compatibiliser and
aminopropyl triethoxysilane ...
Effects of natural weathering on properties of recycled newspaper-filled polypropylene (PP)/natural rubber (NR) composites
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
Natural weathering has been applied to investigate the properties of recycled newspaper (RNP)-filled polypropylene (PP)/natural rubber (NR) composites. Three sizes of RNP (11 mm, 23 mm, and 53 mm) were used in this study. ...
Chemical modification of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane on mechanical and thermal properties
(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 ...
