Mechanical properties of abaca fiber reinforced polypropylene composites: Effect of chemical treatment by benzenediazonium chloride
Untreated abaca fibers and benzenediazonium chloride treated abaca strands were employed as reinforcements for fabricating polypropylene composites by injection molding method. Various composites were fabricated with different fiber loadings of 30%, 35%, 40%, 45% and 50% with and without coupling ag...
