Optimization of the mechanical properties of abaca fibre-reinforced high impact polystyrene (HIPS) composites using Box-Behnken design of experiments
Mechanical properties of polymer composites are influenced by many factors such as the types of fibres, the types of polymer matrix, the additives used and the adhesion between fibres and polymer matrix. To improve the interfacial adhesion between HIPS matrix and abaca fibres, a study of the optimum...
