A Study on Parameter Optimization of the Delamination Factor (Fd) in Milling Kenaf Fiber Reinforced Plastics Composite Materials Using DOE Method / Azmi Harun...[et al.]

Kenaf is known by its scientific name, Hibiscus cannabinus, which is similar to jute and cotton, and is also a warm-season annual fibrous crop. In the past, it was used to make sackcloth, and its twine was used to manufacture rope. Kenaf is also used as a cordage crop. A machine’s surface quality no...
