Evaluation of plastic composites made with Laccosperma secundiflorum and Eremospatha macrocarpa canes

The feasibility of using rattan canes (Laccosperma secundiflorum and Eremospatha macrocarpa) as reinforced fillers for high density polyethylene based plastic composite production was investigated. Extruded composites were tested for water sorption, tensile and thermal properties. The results obtai...
