Dr. Hakimah, Osman, Dr. irsalmah@unimap.edu.my hakimah@unimap.edu.my Cocoa pod husk Composites Methacrylic acid Polypropylene Link to publisher's homepage at http://ncsu.edu/ The effect of filler modification using methacrylic acid (MAA) on polypropylene (PP)/cocoa pod husk (CPH) composites was studied. The performances of unmodified and modified PP/CPH composites were analyzed for torque development, tensile properties, and thermal properties. The presence of MAA increased the stabilization torque of the PP/CPH composites. The tensile strength and modulus of the modified PP/CPH composites were improved compared to unmodified PP/CPH composites, but the elongation at break was reduced. The crystallinity and thermal stability of the PP/CPH composites increased after modification with MAA. All the composite property changes were due to the improvement in filler-matrix adhesion and this was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). 2014-03-20T08:14:58Z 2014-03-20T08:14:58Z 2013-08 Article BioResources, vol. 8(3), 2013, pages 3260-3275 1930-2126 http://ncsu.edu/bioresources/BioRes_08_3.html http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/32922 en North Carolina State University |
