Water retention in kenaf/polypropylene composites due to repeated immersion and drying conditions
Lignocelluloses based natural fibers composites are very prone to water absorption due to OH functional group within cellulose and hemicelluloses of natural fibers. In this work, the water retention in the kenaf/polypropylene (kenaf /PP) composite due to repeated immersion and drying are studied. Th...
