Experimental Study on the Surface Properties of Coconut Husk Fiber and Banana Fiber Treated with Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Abstract: The focus of modern research is on using natural, biodegradable, and renewable materials in place of synthetic ones. Composites made from natural fibers are undergoing extensive research because of their unusual characteristics and eco-friendliness. Natural fibers have the benefits of being readily available, simple to handle, and biodegradable. One of the best ways to improve the mechanical characteristics of polymer is to reinforce it with natural fibers. With hybrid composites, …

Effect of Compatibilizers on Polypropylene-Based Peanut Shell Flour Composites Reinforced with Nanoclay
Abstract: The improvement of innovative ingredients is on the rise, especially in the automobile, aerospace, aviation, and construction industries. Conventional ingredients are being substituted with nanocomposite ingredients due to their excellent features. In this study, various composites based on polypropylene (PP), peanut shell flour (50 wt% PSF), and nanoclay (Cloisite 30B) were manufactured by melt mixing process followed by injection molded in the presence of maleated PP (PPM) and maleated styrene …
