Process optimization of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene/cellulose nanofiber bionanocomposites in triple screw kneading extruder by response surface methodology
Incorporation of nanocellulose could improve wear resistance of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for an artificial joint application. Yet, the extremely high melt viscosity of the polymer may constrict the mixing, leading to fillers agglomeration and poor mechanical properties. This...
