Study of Nano-Mechanical Performance of Pretreated Natural Fiber in LDPE Composite for Packaging Applications

In this work, the effects of chemical pretreatment and different fiber loadings on mechanical properties of the composites at the sub-micron scale were studied through nanoindentation. The composites were prepared by incorporating choline chloride (ChCl) pretreated rice husk waste (RHW) in low-densi...
