The mechanical properties, water absorption, morphology, and thermal properties were investigated. The composites with MAPE improved tensile strength and Young's modulus but reduced elongation at break and water absorption. Scanning electron microscopy study of the tensile fracture surface of composites indicated that the presence of MAPE increased the interfacial interaction between chitosan and RPE matrix. The incorporation of MAPE improved the thermal stability and crystallinity of RPE/chitosan composites. 2011-06-17T13:23:08Z 2011-06-17T13:23:08Z 2011-02 Article Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, vol. 30(3), 2011, pages 195-202 0731-6844 http://jrp.sagepub.com/content/30/3/195 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/12325 en SAGE Publications |
