Characterization Of Kenaf Bast Fibre Filled Poly(Butylene Succinate) Composites: Mechanical, Water Absorption And Weathering Properties

Characterization of kenaf bast fibre (KBF) filled poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) composites in this study involved several stages. Firstly, the effect of KBF loadings (10 – 40 wt. %) on flexural and impact properties were investigated. The flexural strength of the composites increased with increasin...
