Ghani, Dr. Tan, Soo Jin Hanafi, Ismail Teh, Pei Ling hanafi@eng.usm.my Water hyacinth fiber Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) Chemical modification Link to publisher's homepage at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com The effects of (a) the chemical modification of water hyacinth fiber by poly(vinyl alcohol) (WHF-PVA) and (b) loading on the properties of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/(natural rubber (NR))/(water hyacinth fiber (WHF)) composites were studied. Mechanical properties, water absorption behavior, morphology, and thermal properties were examined; X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopic analysis were done. The results indicated that LDPE/NR/WHF-PVA composites had higher values of tensile strength, Young's modulus, melting temperature, and water absorption resistance but lower elongation at break than LDPE/NR/WHF composites. The LDPE/NR/WHF-PVA composites had better interfacial adhesion between the matrix and the fibers than LDPE/NR/WHF composites, as shown by SEM results. The LDPE/NR/WHF-PVA composites exhibited lower interparticle spacing than LDPE/NR/WHF composites, a feature which enhanced the interparticle interaction between the water hyacinth fibers and the LDPE/NR matrix. 2014-07-11T07:46:51Z 2014-07-11T07:46:51Z 2013-03 Article Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, vol.19 (1), 2013, pages 47–54 1548-0585 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/36164 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/vnl.20315/abstract en Society of Plastics Engineers
