The higher numbers of breaking fibres of the diapers waste in the ratio 0.4 MSWPC-DW indicate the higher mechanical strength of the composite.

It is similar to the flexural strength test, ratio 0.4 MSWPC-DW also indicated the highest deflection of 34.82 mm and the highest maximum strength at 22.92 MPa.

In summary, these results show that ratio 0.4 of MSWPC-DW were the best in fabricating the partition panel. 2021-06 Thesis http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/1069/ http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/1069/1/24p%20MUHAMMAD%20HAIKAL%20BIN%20MOHD%20FODZI.pdf text en public http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/1069/2/MUHAMMAD%20HAIKAL%20BIN%20MOHD%20FODZI%20COPYRIGHT%20DECLARATION.pdf text en staffonly http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/1069/3/MUHAMMAD%20HAIKAL%20BIN%20MOHD%20FODZI%20WATERMARK.pdf text en validuser mphil masters Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Faculty of Engineering Technology
