The properties of palm kernel shell (PKS) powder filled styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) composites
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
In this study, palm kernel shell (PKS) with 150um size (average particle size) was
used as filler in styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) composites. The effect of filler loading on
tensile properties, swelling behavior and ...
Study on the melt flow properties of low density polyethylene/palm kernel shells composites: effect of compatibilizer
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
The melt flow properties of the LDPE/PKS composites were studied by using a capillary rheometer. In this study, polyethylene acrylic acid (PEAA) was used as compostibilizer in the LDPE/PKS composites systems. The effects ...
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 ...
Mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of chitosan filled polypropylene composites: The effect of binary modifying agents
(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 ...
Effects of dynamic vulcanization on thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer composites
(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 ...
