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 effect of chemical modification on properties of polypropylene/bagasse fiber composites compounding using two roll mill
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-03)
This study is concerned on chemical modification of bagasse fiber (BF) filled polypropylene (PP) composites compounding using two roll mill. The fibers were chemically modified with different chemical treatment (alkaline, ...
Effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate on mechanical and thermal properties of polypropylene/chitosan composites
(SAGE Publications, 2013-08)
The effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites was investigated. Mechanical and thermal properties of PP/chitosan composites were analyzed ...
Preparation and characterization of palm kernel shell/ polypropylene biocomposites and their hybrid composites with nanosilica
(North Carolina State University, 2013-05)
Hybrid composites are characterized by a variety of properties that are of interest to automotive applications, including strength, mechanical, and thermal properties. In this work, palm kernel shell-filled maleated ...
