Characterization Of Kenaf Bast Fibre Filled Poly(Butylene Succinate) Composites: Mechanical, Water Absorption And Weathering Properties

Characterization of kenaf bast fibre (KBF) filled poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) composites in this study involved several stages. Firstly, the effect of KBF loadings (10 – 40 wt. %) on flexural and impact properties were investigated. The flexural strength of the composites increased with increasin...

description Characterization of kenaf bast fibre (KBF) filled poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) composites in this study involved several stages. Firstly, the effect of KBF loadings (10 – 40 wt. %) on flexural and impact properties were investigated. The flexural strength of the composites increased with increasing fibre loadings up to 30 wt. % with the highest value of about 9.4 % before decreasing with a further increase in fibre loading. The flexural modulus of the composites increased about 87.1 – 424 % with increasing KBF loadings from 10 to 40 wt. %.
