Preparation And Properties Of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)/Soya Powder/Kenaf Core Biocomposites

Mechanical, thermal, water absorption properties and morphologies of HDPE/soya powder/kenaf core biocomposites modified with maleic anhydride polyethylene (MAPE), γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-APS), acetic anhydride and oxidized polyethylene (OxPE) were investigated. The effect of filler loading...
