Mechanical properties of palm oil fiber reinforced thermoplastic natural rubber composites / Siti Afiqah Abdul Rahman

In this research, polypropylene is mixed with natural rubber to form composite of thermoplastic natural rubber (TPNR). It was then mixed with palm oil fiber as filler using dispersion mixer with various fiber loading and fiber length. Fiber loading that has been used are 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 g. Fi...
