Preparation and Physico-Chemical Properties of Polypropylene and Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Fibre Composites

Composites of polypropylene (PP) and oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) were prepared by melt blending, and the effects of ethylene-butene copolymer (EBNR) as an impact modifier, on the mechanical and thermal properties of OPEFB:PP composites were investigated by using FTIR, DSC, TGA and SEM. Compos...
