Study on Effect of Nanosilica Sand Addition on Physical and Mechanical Properties of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)

Nanoparticles reinforced composite can be considered as a new technology and a good candidate material for research. Since this advanced composite are relatively new, studies need to be done to discover the properties changing in the composite. The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of...
