The tensile strength and tensile modulus of PP/CPH biocomposites increased with increasing of MAPP content. The PP/CPH biocomposites with 5 phr of MAPP showed the optimum improvement on tensile properties. However, the increased of MAPP content reduced the elongation at break of PP/CPH biocomposites. At 5 phr of MAPP content, PP/CPH biocomposites showed lowest elongation at break. Scanning electron microscope confirms the PP/CPH biocomposites with MAPP have better filler-matrix interaction and adhesion due to the effect of MAPP. 2014-03-20T08:43:10Z 2014-03-20T08:43:10Z 2013 Article Advanced Materials Research, vol. 747, 2013, pages 645-648 978-303785771-7 1022-6680 http://www.scientific.net/AMR.747.645 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/32927 en Trans Tech Publications
