Influence of activated carbon filler on the mechanical properties of wood composites

This study is conducted to investigate the influence of activated carbon as filler on the mechanical properties of wood composite. It mainly focused on the strength, stress, and displacement of the wood composites. A composite material is defined as a combination of two or more materials that result...
