Tensile and morphology properties of polylactic acid/ treated typha latifolia composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-12)
This paper is focused to investigate the effect of treated natural fiber (typha latifolia) content on tensile and morphology properties of polylactic acid (PLA)/treated typha latifolia (T-TyLa) composites. The composite ...
Effect of compatibilizer on mechanical properties and water absorption behaviour of coconut fiber filled polypropylene composite
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-03)
Compatibilizer is used to improve mechanical properties and water absorption behaviour of polypropylene/coconut fiber (PP/CF) composites by promoting strong adhesion between CF filler and PP Matrix. Maleic Anhydride Grafted ...
Properties of low-density polyethylene/palm kernel shell composites: Effect of polyethylene co-acrylic acid
(SAGE Publications, 2013-02)
Palm kernel shell (PKS)-filled low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites was studied. The polyethylene co-acrylic acid (PEAA) was used as compatibilizer. The tensile properties, thermal analysis, water absorption, and ...
Effects of silane coupling agent on mechanical properties and swelling behaviour of coconut fiber filled polypropylene composite
(Scientific.Net, 2012-12)
Silane treatment used to improve mechanical properties and swelling behaviour of polypropylene/coconut fiber (PP/CF) composites by creating more adherent bonding between CF filler and PP Matrix. 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane ...
A comparative study of polypropylene/chloroprene rubber and recycled polypropylene/chloroprene rubber blends
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
Blends of virgin and recycled polypropylene with chloroprene rubber have been prepared to compare the effect of blend ratio on mechanical properties and morphology of both virgin and recycled materials. The results showed ...
The tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites treated with acetic acid
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The effect of chemical modification on tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites as a function of filler loading was investigated. The chemical modification was conducted via acetylation of chitosan ...
The effect of sodium hydroxide on properties of coconut shell filled polyester composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The treatment of coconut shell (CS) with sodium hydroxide on properties of Polyester/CS composites has been carried out. The results showed that the treatment using sodium hydroxide indicates higher in tensile strength and ...
The thermal properties of low density polyethylene (LDPE)/ palm kernel shells (PKS) composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The thermal properties of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)/ Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) composites were studied. The composites with and without compatibilizer were prepared and subjected to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) ...
Effect of Compatibilizer on Mechanical Properties and Morphology of Clay Filled Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2007-06-09)
The main purpose of incorporating fillers, such as clay into composites of polyolefin is to decrease costs and change the properties. Structural differences between both components give rise to the formation of large filler ...
Chitosan- Latex Membrane Composites Film for Heavy Metal Removal
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2010-01-07)
The affinity membrane has emerged as an alternative to the particle media, to overcome mass transfer resistance. The hydrophobic membrane is from the commercially available materials, such as polysulfone, polycarbonate, ...
