The mechanical testing indicates that composite with 10 wt% has the optimum value of tensile strength, and the 3-APE treated composites shows the tensile strength was increased. By increasing of filler loading, elastic modulus was increased while the elongation at brake was decreased. Meanwhile, the swelling test discerned that the increase of filler loading increased the water absorption of composites and the presence of 3-APE reduced the equilibrium water absorption percentage. 2014-02-25T04:56:43Z 2014-02-25T04:56:43Z 2012-12 Article Advanced Materials Research, vol.626, 2012, pages 657-661 1022-6680 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/32147 http://www.scientific.net/AMR.626.657 en Scientific.Net |
