The Low Velocity Impact Properties of Pandanus Fiber Composites
The impact properties of biodegradable Pandanus atrocarpus composite laminate is studied. Laminate samples were fabricated using a hot compression molding technique with high-density polyethylene and extracted Pandanus fiber. Pandanus composites were tested under impact loading in order to study t...

Summary: | The impact properties of biodegradable Pandanus atrocarpus composite laminate is studied. Laminate
samples were fabricated using a hot compression molding technique with high-density polyethylene and extracted
Pandanus fiber. Pandanus composites were tested under impact loading in order to study their relative impact
performance. Under low velocity impact loading, Pandanus fiber laminates offered an excellent resistance to impact
penetration. Tests have shown that increasing the volume fraction of Pandanus fiber can enhance the toughness of the composite. The biodegradable composites imply attractive properties that may be accessible for use in engineering
sectors. |
