The effect of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR 50) as a compatibilizer on spear grass filled low density polyethylene/soya spent powder

Composite based on spear grass with low density polyethylene (LDPE)/soya spent powder (SSP) were prepared by using twin screw extruder at 150oC. The spear grass (SG) loading was ranged from 0 to 15%. A compatibilizer, epoxidized natural rubber (ENR 50) with 50 mol % epoxidation was added. The effect...
