Effect of alkali treatment on hair fiber as reinforcement of HDPE composites: mechanical properties and water absorption behavior

This research work investigated the effect of fiber loading and alkali treatment on hair fiber (HF)-reinforced high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composites in terms of mechanical properties and water absorption behavior. The mechanical stability of the composite material was studied by Universal Test...
